Description
Book SynopsisAngelina, born a bastard, charts her own future against the wishes of her father.
In this epic yet intimate tale of power, passion, and revenge, the rise and fall of a family taps into the universal desire to become more than who we are born as.
Translated from the Italian by Katherine Gregor
Trade Review“Beautifully written, impossible to put down, the powerful Florios of Sicily are alive on every page. For lovers of historical fiction, Stefania Auci is a blessing, and she has written a family saga you will long remember.” — Peter Golden, author of Nothing Is Forgotten “When I read it, I knew it was perfect.” — La Repubblica "Auci focuses a panoramic lens on the Florio family's achievements while never losing sight of the smaller personal details of their (epic) lives." — Kirkus Reviews
