| Publisher Description: One moment, Mona's father is teaching her to make pasta sauce at 2 AM and the next, she sits next to him in a hospital room, counting the seconds between beeps. When a curiously familiar barefooted boy runs in, carrying a blue umbrella and singing a song Mona's heard somewhere before, the rain begins. And Mona goes on a journey forward to the past. Steeped in legend and lore, Oregano is a family play about accepting the past in order to embrace the future. Teaching us that sometimes, the truth can be exactly as we imagine it to be. |
