Synopsis
Beloved New York Times bestselling author Adriana Trigiani returns with the most epic and ambitious novel of her career—a breathtaking multigenerational love story that spans two continents, two World Wars, and the quest of two star-crossed lovers to find each other again. The Shoemaker's Wife is replete with the all the page-turning adventure, sumptuous detail, and heart-stopping romance that has made Adriana Trigiani, “one of the reigning queens of women’s fiction” (USA Today). Fans of Trigiani’s sweeping family dramas like Big Stone Gap and Lucia, Lucia will love her latest masterpiece, a book Kathryn Stockett, author of The Help, calls “totally new and completely wonderful: a rich, sweeping epic which tells the story of the women and men who built America dream by dream.”

Reviews
The books is great until the second voice stared in CD #9. If I am not wrong is the voice of the author Adriana trigiani. Ms Trigiani you read the book like you are covering your nose, your voice is so boring that the beauty of the book is gone, I just want to finish the book. The first voice is great and I identified with the characters of the book. I advise you, you are a great writer but like a reader you are bad, very bad. I thought you were smart and you knew your place, but I was wrong. I will never listen to another of your books if you read them.
