Product ReviewsHome to Big Stone Gap : A Novel by Adriana Trigiani (2007, Trade Paperback)

Insightful and cathartic...

Grabbed this book to read to combat traveling boredom. Big Stone Gap reads like a modern day "Steel Magnolias" mixed with "Elizabethtown" as the reader feels Ave Maria's turmoil in life's changes. Book four in the Big Stone Gap series only 20 years later. The reader can feel Ave Maria's anxiety in her husband Jack's health, her sense of loss in the death of her son Joe, letting go of her daughter Etta as she weds Stefano and moves to Italy, and comes to terms with a big secret that her best friend never told her. The local characters are humorous yet very strong women in adversity (namely Iva Lou and Fleeta). This is definitely a 'chick lit' catergory, but oh so much fun to read. Lighthearted yet very deep and insightful...grab the Kleenex! 4 stars****Read full review...
