1959 was a different time, when gender roles were fixed and one naive mistake can change everything. Diane found this out the hard way and not only loses her future but also herself and eventually her mind. Diane’s husband Richard, barely a man when he put the ring on Diane’s finger, struggles to understand and keep the family together. Ultimately it is their daughter, Frankie, who pays the price and learns that not all mothers are as loving as they should be. The House Beside the Cherry Tree tells the story from each family member's perspective – that of Diane, her husband Richard, and their daughter Frankie - in a very personal and intimate way.
