This New York Timesâbestselling memoir âcombines family and American history, reflections on lives well-lived, and sound advice to excellent effectâ (Publishers Weekly). New York Timesâbestselling author Adriana Trigiani shares a treasure trove of insight and guidance from her two grandmothers: time-tested, common sense advice on the most important aspects of a womanâs life, from childhood to the golden years. Seamlessly blending anecdote with life lesson, Donât Sing at the Table tells the two vibrant womenâs real-life storiesâhow they fell in love, nurtured their marriages, balanced raising children with being savvy businesswomen, and reinvented themselves with each new decade. For readers of Big Stone Gap, Very Valentine, Lucia, Lucia, and Rococo, this loving memoir is the Trigiani family recipe for chicken soup for the soul. âReaders will find her strength and optimism helpful, and her legions of loyal fans will enjoy learning more about the women who influenced, inspired, and, according to Trigiani, made possible some of her best-selling fiction.â âBooklist âDelightful, energetic. . . . Trigiani is a seemingly effortless storyteller.â âBoston Globe âWell crafted work with sometime lyrical, sometimes flat-out-funny writing.â âFort Worth Star-Telegram âDazzling.â âUSA Today |
