It is a beautifully written book that just makes you want to stay and read more. You just can’t put it down.
Based in Tuscany 3 generations of women who live together- strong characters and a wonderful plot.

The White Moth is part biography of her mother in law, Alda and part memoir.

The biography part was a struggle to read because the author wrote a good chunk of it in conversation, which made it veer into fiction territory. With so much conversation in the text that the author could not verify, it made me wonder why not write a fictionalized account of her mother in law’s life instead?

The memoir parts were interesting but oddly strung together. No introduction to people in her life and then all of a sudden they feature in the story (ie her brother Jerry. We don’t know about his existence until her father is dying of cancer in the hospital). It was weird
