"In this remarkable memoir, Mary Cappello explores the legacy of her family with not only grace of style but a kind of grace of being. . . . Fierce, honest, and deeply affecting."--Jay Parini, author of Benjamin's Crossing

"Cappello draws you deeply into her world and rewards you with rich description and sustained motifs. . . . She achieves an illumination that borders on epiphany."--Corene Lemaitre, Philadelphia City Paper
