    • Estamos en 1978, y Ave María Mulligan, de treinta y cinco años, es la solterona por vocación de Big Stone Gap, un pequeño y aislado pueblo de las montañas Apalaches, en Virginia. Como farmacéutica local, Ave María ha sido durante años la depositaria de los secretos de sus vecinos, pero ahora descubrirá un escándalo que su madre le ha ocultado hasta su muerte y que trastornará para siempre su apacible existencia. Ese verano, la vida de Ave Maria se convierte en un torbellino de acontecimientos: deberá decidirse entre dos propuestas de matrimonio, al tiempo que lidia con un feroz conflicto familiar, dirige el grupo teatral local, planea un trascendental viaje al Viejo Continente y ayuda a su mejor amiga quien acompaña a su marido durante la campaña electoral al senado a organizar un espectáculo en honor a Elizabeth Taylor.

    • Adriana Trigiani's two remarkable grandmothers, Lucia and Viola, lived through the 20th century from beginning to end as working women who juggled careers and motherhood. From the factory line to the family table, the two of them - the very definition of modern women - cut a path for their granddaughter by demonstrating courage and skill in their fearless approach to life, love and overcoming obstacles. Trigiani visits the past to seek answers to the essential questions that define the challenges women face today: how we hold on to the values that make life rich and beautiful, how we can take risks and reap the rewards, how to stand resilient in the face of tragedy. 'Be bold; 'be direct'; 'be different'!
