Review of Joey's Phone Call Home

I liked this piece and found myself drawn into it. The phone call speaks for itself- there is no need to elaborate with a narrative. It is a refreshingly honest dialogue between a son, his mother and little sister. The power lies not in what is said- but what is not said.
