Postolareva žena

Adriana Trigiani

The Shoemaker's Wife is Adriana Trigiani's biggest hit and the most beautiful love story she wrote. Our readership has already met her with the hits Lucia, Lucia, The best summer of our life, Autumn clouds, and other hits.

The majestic, unforgettable beauty of the Italian Alps at the turn of the twentieth century is the setting in which Enzo and Ciro meet for the first time. But when Ciro catches the local priest in the arms of a local beauty, he is kicked out of the village and sent to America as a shoemaker's apprentice. He leaves without explanation and leaves Enzo behind. But she, without his knowledge, goes after him.

Not knowing about each other, Ciro and Enza, both still young and naive, begin to create a new life in America. Ciro successfully mastered the shoemaking trade. Enza gets a job in a factory. Until fate intervenes and brings them back together. But it's too late. Ciro has already volunteered to go to war. Enza decides to continue her life without him, building a successful career as a seamstress at the Metropolitan Opera House. And this will enable her to reach the glamorous salons in Manhattan and enter the life of the international singing star, the famous Enrico Caruso.

From the magnificent building of Carnegie Hall, through the cobbled streets of New York's Italian district, to the endless plains of northern Minnesota, these tragic lovers meet and part. Until, finally, the power of their love changes their lives forever.

This most interesting historical story about love and family, war and loss, risk and fate is a novel that only Adriana Trigiani can write. The story is inspired by her own family's history and love of tradition, which has brought her literary successes international recognition.
