Jake, a successful writer, has a string of unsuccessful experiences with the women in his life. Wildly comic and sometimes moving flashbacks played in his mind are interrupted by visitations from the actual women in his life: a revered first wife who was killed years earlier in an accident, his daughter who is recalled as a child but is now a young woman, his boisterous and bossy sister, an opinioned analyst, his current wife who is leaving Jake for another man, and a prospective third wife. Like most of Simon’s plays, Jake’s Women ends with the hope—not promise—of a happier future.
