Peter Pezzelli's remarkable debut, "Home to Italy, " won the hearts of readers and critics alike. Now, with "Every Sunday, " Pezzelli has created another unforgettable tale about life, love, family and friendship. In Providence, Rhode Island, everybody knows Nick Catini. Street smart, with a quick wit and a larger-than-life personality, Nick is the go-to guy, the owner of Catini's Hardware who's there to score friends tickets to the big game or fix his daughters' problems. Every Sunday, Nick presides over the family dinner, dishing out sauce and advice with equal abandon. It is a time for family, for grandchildren, for men watching football in the living room while the women gossip and plan in the kitchen. It is a time to remember what matters most in life. Sunday is the best day of the week, and nobody can imagine it without Nick. But when Nick is suddenly gone, that is exactly what they have to do--go on without him. For his girls--Maria, Nina, and Gina--it means learning to stand on their own feet while arguing about whether or not their mother, Teresa, can date again. For Teresa, it means trying somehow to keep her family together, even as she wonders what it would be like to find love again. And for her carefree son, Johnny, it means making good on his father's last request, a secret with the power to heal Johnny's guarded heart, if it doesn't destroy his family in the process. Now, as the first leaves of fall stick to the wet streets of New England, as the winter snow melts into the pastel hues of spring, and everything seems new and different, the Catinis will be tested and changed as never before. For what seems like an insurmountable loss just may be the beginning of the best part of their lives. . . At once both funny and heartwarming, with one of the most unique, unforgettable narrators to come along in years, "Every Sunday" is a warm, winning novel rich in hope, wisdom and the surprising strength of second chances. Outstanding Praise For Peter Pezzelli And Home To Italy A BookSense Pick! "A beautiful novel. . .Peter Pezzelli captures the warmth of Italy--family, friendships, and food--invites us into the world of his wonderful characters, and takes us full circle on a journey of life and love." --Luanne Rice, "New York Times" bestselling author "A delightful story of second chances." --Desert Morning News "Big-hearted and wise, Home to Italy is a charming ode to the romance of new beginnings and the Italian gusto for life. Peter Pezzelli's tale of a widower who returns to his childhood town in Abruzzo to rebuild his life, only to be struck by the legendary thunderbolt of love, is a continuous delight." --Louisa Ermelino, author of "Joey Dee Gets Wise" "With heartwarming touches of humor, Home to Italy reaffirms that life can always be renewed. This is a wonderfully satisfying romance that brings to life the sights, sounds, and tastes of Italy." --"Romantic Times" "A warmhearted novel, perfect for an autumn evening in front of the fire." --"Litchfield Enquirer"… (lisätietoja)

I received this book as a gift and really enjoyed it. It is a nice, sweet story of a family dealing with the loss of the father and how members of the family step into different roles. It also has a bit of a twist that deals with love intrigue and mistaken identity. ( )

A book of a Fathers death, son takes over business and needs to grow up. Some parts interesting, others boring. I can't say I loved the book, but I didn't hate it either. It kind of grew on me. I would say read this book if you have time. ( )

I always love books that are original. The main character’s dead father narrates this sweet little story about an Italian family who puts their lives back together after his death. Not exactly chic lit, Every Sunday is more of a rainy day feel good read than anything else. ( )

This was a nice book, a good read for bedtime reading. Family love, romance, emotional conflict. Ended without telling the reader what eventually happened, leaving it up to the imagination. Interesting perspective - the story being told by the husband/father, who had passed away and was keeping watch over his family. Well done. ( )
