From the author of the bestselling North of Naples, South of Rome, comes Longing and Belonging , a novel set in the Italian south of the last century, when emigration, poverty and ignorance dominated society. It tells the story of the beautiful and strong-willed Celeste Bassetti, and the unrelenting life that is in store for her as she becomes entwined with the di Vito brothers. A rags-to-riches family saga, it takes the reader on an intimate, authentic and very human journey from 1930s provincial Italy and its stifling, God-fearing customs, to the present day. It does not, for one single moment, let up.
