Summary:
Set in early 20th-century smalltown America this novel tells a heartfelt story of strong women enduring the rigors of farm life and the trials of romantic and familial relations. Nella Castelluca has brains and ambition; she hopes to someday become a teacher. Alas, when her father is injured at work, she must quit school and stay home to help on the family farm. Her first dream slips away, but working farm life turns out to be not so bad, and Nella eventually falls for the dreamy poet Renato Lanzara. But when he skips town, dream two is crushed, and Nella faces a tough reality: marry another man, and move on. The novel paints a thorough picture of Italian-American family life and the deep pain of lost love.
