Beskrivelse
The satisfying conclusion to Angela Lanza's story which began in Between the Cracks when she loses her entire family in the earthquake on Sicily following the 1908 eruption of Mt. Etna and continues in The Ascent as she adjusts to life in the United States as a new bride and Italian American immigrant. Now, in the final installment in the trilogy, The Benevolence of New Ideas, thrusts Angela and her family into the heart of the Vietnam War and the turbulent times of the 1970s. As the family matriarch, Angela guides her niece, Marie, through these challenges and the era's limiting structures of education and organized religion, helping Marie to embrace new ideas and expand her intuition and relationship with the unseen world. Angela's compassion and wisdom has an exceptional impact on Marie's life and those around her. A fulfilling ending that celebrates Angela's wisdom in all things along with her well-lived life from tragedy to triumph and from heartbreak to the enduring love of family.
