Trade Review
"Craft and imagination distinguish this short-story cycle about a long bloodline originating in a remote Italian mountain village.... Their stories flower forth from the family tree with the arresting color of a late-season bloom." - Chicago Tribune; "Here at last is fiction worthy of award.... Haunting, with a taste in the words like bitter cherries." - Booklist, starred review; "Lyrical and lovely.... Narrators in these stories share a common Italian ancestry, but a stronger link is their dialect of loneliness.... An exquisite collection." - Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
