"In a world filled with sanctions and restrictions, Marena struggles to remember the past: a time before the Zero Tolerance Party murdered her mother and put her father under house arrest. A time before they installed listening devices in every home and forbade citizens to read or write. A time when she was free. In the spirit of her revolutionary mother, Marena forms her own resistance group--the White Rose."
Excellent fiction whose target audience is teenagers, but with enough depth for every adult.
Author-actor James DeVita is resident playwrite for First Stage Children's Theater, Milwaukee; and a recipient of the "Distinguished Play Award" from the American Alliance of Theater and Education.
