<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Monterini, Italy. 1921: Yacobo Levi, an intellectual dreamer, works in the family bookshop. Angelo Ghione, a contadino, makes good wine by singing to the grapes. Lifetime best friends, their Jewish and Catholic families live side by side amidst a backdrop of village communal life, Etruscan tales, and the growth of Benito Mussolini. Born on the same day, their children grow up and fall in love. When the 1938 racial laws are passed, the love between Bella and Rico thrives amidst and perhaps because of the fear and uncertainty. When Angelo discovers their liaison he suggests they marry, but life is complicated and tensions simmer beneath the surface of love and friendship. When war is declared on the day of Bella's wedding to Michele, a fellow Jew, the peaceful village they live in is torn apart, and the Levi's find themselves displaced and fighting for their lives. Will life ever be the same again? <i>The Tears of Monterini </i>is a story of love and betrayal, loyalty and friendship. Inspired by true events, this beautifully written debut will appeal to readers interested in history, Italy, romance, family dynamics, and conflict.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Amanda Weinberg </b>studied Modern Languages at the University of East Anglia, followed by a PGCE at King's College London.
