\"The<\/a>The Tale of Lucia Grandi<\/a><\/h1>\n

When an old woman is asked to tell the story of her life, she tells an
\nintense and poignant tale about growing up in and surviving a warring
\nsuburban family during the 1950s and ’60s.<\/p>\n

Written as a memoir, each chapter describes a particular incident in
\nLucia’s life which shows the constant struggle between her parents and the
\nperverse effect it has on her and her family. From her complicated and
\nunwanted birth, to her witnessing a suicide at age 3, to her stint as a
\nrunaway at age 14, the story progresses to the final crisis where as a
\nyoung woman she is turned out of her house and banished from her family
\nforever.<\/p>\n

Told in breathtakingly beautiful prose, this is a powerful and timeless
\nstory of a dying woman’s courageous attempt to come to terms with her past
\nand the troubled family that dominated it.<\/p>\n
