From award-winning author, Mohsin Zaidi (A Dutiful Boy), comes a gripping debut drama that explodes the notions of contemporary parenthood.
Jake and Sameer have spent years preparing for this moment—the birth of their first child.
But when Marya, their surrogate, is admitted to the hospital with complications, legal, ethical, and personal battles force the couple to confront questions they never expected: Who gets to decide what makes a family? And at what cost?
Set over the course of a single sleepless night, The Surrogate is a 21st-century exploration of privilege, and the complexities of modern family-making in a world where the rules are still being written.
