Now I think I understand. Absolutely nothing gets in the way between the reader and the story. No distractions of awkward wording, no jarring images to pull the reader out of the book, no awareness of how clever the writer is||
“A marvelous, lovable novel.” —Joyce Maynard
Out of the daily lives of women and the simplest of domestic chores, out of the streets, the meals, the smells of Little Italy and its community, closely knit by gossip and tradition, comes this imaginative tale of the Santangelos. The book has been made into a film by Jonathan Demme.
