Overview

Tamaro is Italy's most famous and successful contemporary writer. She is widely known across Europe and beyond. What experiences lie at the heart of this poet's soul?

Turning Home is a memoir of gentleness and courage. Simple, quiet language and the beautiful imagery of her Italian home communicate the author's fearless search for truth. The nights when she lay awake in angst and wonder, the days when her grandfather took her to the former battlefields of World War II -- a dream for peace and justice seemed worthwhile. Is faith an option?
