George Konert's once rich life is ending on a bitter note. He is estranged from his friends and neighbors, his wife is dead and his two daughters are distant and have not produced the grandchildren he longs for. A glut of cabbage from his garden becomes the catalyst that transforms him from an aging curmudgeon who has given up on life into an engaging and often hilarious man. Cabbage Requiem is the story of George's resurrection.
