    About this audiobook

    A moving family saga about the cost of living in conformity, Donna Greco comes of age in 1970 with her brother Vincent by her side. While she dreams of a conventional life of marriage, children, and wealth, her artistic brother has other plans. As the years pass, she grows to realize that his free-wheeling attitude may have been the right choice all along. Heartfelt and humorous, this story asks readers an intriguing question: “What pictures will you have of yourself by the end of your life?” If you loved The Nest by Cynthia D'Aprix Sweeney, you'll love this poignant character-driven story that reveals the secret to living free.

    "a moving story of two Italian American siblings across several decades...graceful prose...poignant character driven story," Publisher's Weekly

    "a refreshing family portrait about interpersonal evolution...presented with affection, humor, and insight...evocative, uplifting," Midwest Book Review

    “highly polished artistic prose…evolves fluidly; with great heart and humour…A consummate exponent in the art of storytelling and skilled in the imagery of words... the characters are all emotionally complex…lyrical and lovingly written…profound and thought provoking,” Fiction Books Biz Book Reviews

    "The periods and places are so well realised, with the kind of simple, yet revealing, strokes Donna admires in her brother's drawings. This is writing of the highest quality...it is a book that makes you think, to question your assumptions. And that is something that the best literature sets out to do," Rosie Amber Book Reviews
