Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
The bond between a mother and son is like no other. "Aracoeli" is the story of Manuel, a man who seems to have nothing to live for. In his mid-life crisis, he returns to his mother's hometown to try to piece together her life to gain some semblance of closure about a bond that was lost. Hoping to get his own life back on track by understanding his mother's, "Aracoeli" is deftly translated from the original Italian by William Weaver, an excellent read for those seeking world fiction.
