Piece Description:

Claire Archer, an experimental botanist, strives to create a new species. Tom, Dick, and Harry (her soulmate, lover, and husband respectively) each hold her back from her work. She finds herself caught between societal expectations and the possibilities her work offers. Will she break through or be broken?
