À propos de ce contenu audio
“A stunning debut. An intergenerational story full of the complexities of family life that will surprise and inspire you at every turn.” —Adriana Trigiani, New York Times bestselling author
In this wise and warm debut novel, an Italian American grandmother, daughter, and granddaughter all named after the Roman myth of the Three Graces find their lives—and their secrets—colliding when, after years apart, they come to live under the same roof.
Graziella, a ninety-six-year-old former nun, spends her days running the parish’s food kitchen, convinced it is her responsibility to keep everyone fed in their working-class New York neighborhood. Her daughter, Grace, a respected psychology professor, appears accomplished and composed, yet finds herself unmoored as her personal life falters. Ella—Graziella’s granddaughter and Grace’s daughter—is weary of defending her vegan diet and anti-capitalistic lifestyle; blind to her own brilliance, she longs, above all, for a place to belong. Living together again, the three Graces reckon with the distances that have shaped them, and with what it means, at last, to be fully known.
“Truly captivating” (Annabel Monaghan, New York Times bestselling author) and populated by unforgettable characters, The Three Graces of Pearl Street explores the delicate balance between tradition and modernity, and the quiet courage it takes to move through the world with true grace.

"Rollins’ debut is an inspiring story about the strength of family, even when life presents unexpected challenges. Carlotta Brentan is the voice of 96-year-old Graziella, daughter of Italian immigrants. This former nun is strong, confident, and determined, often slipping into the Italian she grew up speaking as she runs her parish food kitchen and finds herself sharing her home with her daughter and granddaughter. Vivienne Leheny lets us hear the struggles of daughter Grace, an admired psychology professor, as she works to regain confidence and purpose when her personal life implodes. Janet Metzger channels granddaughter Ella’s frustration in defending her life choices and her yearning for a place to belong."
