“Moving and poignant… Trigiani has again defied categorization. She is more than a one-hit wonder, more than a Southern writer, more than a women’s novelist. She is an amazing young talent.”–Richmond Times-Dispatch

“Trigiani takes from her own heritage to craft a generous plot-driven novel that’s a breezy page-turner… ‘Queen’ offers a personal saga of American history and a romance woven together with warmth and good humor.” –Oregonian
“Full-bodied and elegantly written… Trigiani builds [The Queen of the Big Time] around an old-fashioned love story… Pure pleasure.” –Washington Post Book World
“Deaths lead to births, dreams deferred yield wondrous new visions [in The Queen of the Big Time] … intensely detailed characters.” –Entertainment Weekly
“Heartfelt… Readers who have fallen for Trigiani’s hallmark personages… in previous books will delight in meeting the new ones É [Paints] a thorough picture of Italian-American family life and the deep pain of lost love.” –Publishers Weekly
Praise for Adriana Trigiani and Lucia, Lucia “Trigiani’s writing is as dazzling as Lucia’s dresses.” –USA Today
“Fast-moving, funny, visual, and moving… A vibrant, loving, wistful portrait of a lost time and place. Every page is engrossing and begs us to read the next.” –Richmond Times-Dispatch
“Seamlessly superb storytelling… Trigiana never loses hold of the hearts of her characters-or of the wisdom that tragedy and redemption are also part of life.” –St. Louis Post-Dispatch
“This heartwarming tale is full of lessons about taking risks in life and love.” –Cosmopolitan
