RaveLibrary JournalLuesse unfolds another beautiful story of poverty, community, and love in the Southern United States ... Luesse’s latest will have huge cross-over appeal for general fiction readers.
Adriana Trigiani
PositiveLibrary JournalTony\'s wife is a bit of a misnomer, as the strength of the book is Chi Chi\'s story, but Trigiani is the master of writing complex Italian families, full of characters who love and live with passionate (and sometimes fractured) hearts ... Trigiani delivers another solid historical saga, and her readers will be pleased. As in Laurie Lico Albanese\'s Stolen Beauty, Jane MacKenzie\'s Tapestry of War, and titles by Sarah Jio, readers will follow characters around the world and through the years with interest.
