About this title

Synopsis

These are dramatic monologues rooted in New England, but ranging widely over a spectrum of emotions and narrative styles. They speak in the voices of fathers to daughters, sons to mothers, sisters to brothers, and wives to husbands. They are intimate, reflective, and colloquial. They tell stories about how we deal with pain and endure with those we love the most.
