0385316577 Editorial Reviews n nFrom Library Journal nMost best sellers from abroad don't make it big in America, but this work-which has sold over 500,000 copies in Italy-may be different. Billed as an Italian Bridges of Madison County, it consists of a series of letters from an elderly woman in Trieste to her young granddaughter in America, admonishing her to "follow her heart." nCopyright 1995 Reed Business Information, Inc. --This text refers to the Hardcover edition. n nProduct Description nAn international bestseller with tremendous word-of-mouth appeal, Follow Your Heart is a bittersweet, heartwarming novel spanning generations and teaching the universal truths about life, love, and what lies within each of us.??Originally published in Italy, Follow Your Heart won the coveted Premio Donna Citta di Roma and sold over 800,000 copies in that country alone before hitting bestseller lists throughout the rest of Europe.??Now North American readers can enjoy the novel that has won over the world. n nIt begins in late autumn 1992 as an elderly Italian woman, prompted by the knowledge of her encroaching death, sits down to write a letter to her granddaughter now grown and living in far-off America.??Through these moving reflections, we see one life laid bare--joys, sorrows, regrets, and all.??And through the eyes of a woman nearing the end of her days, we come to understand what life experience has taught her:??that no matter what the stakes, we must look within ourselves and gather the courage to follow our hearts.
