The Almond Picker - Simonetta Agnello Hornby


Starts with the impending death of the main character, and then proceeds to intrigue and mystify you with the question of "who was she?" as you listen in on the gossip of the many village characters and the family members who were connected to her. It's evocative of life in a little Italian village with its intricacies and relationships. (translated from Italian)
