About this listen

Italy, 1950. The dawn of a new decade brings with it the promise of lasting peace and prosperity as the hardships of war are consigned to the past.

In Pieve Santa Clara, a tiny village in rural Lombardy, Graziella Ponti, now a teenager, lives a simple life with her widowed mother and aunt. But Italy is transforming around Graziella at great speed and, as her childhood gives way to the start of her womanhood, she must learn to navigate this ever-changing new world.

Return to Paradiso is a story of love, hope and tragedy set in Italy at a time when the economic miracle is in full swing, the grip of the Catholic Church is loosening and the role of women in society is making significant progress.

The second of the Paradiso novels, this is a compelling and emotionally charged historical audiobook perfect for fans of Dinah Jeffries, Lucinda Riley, Angela Petch and Victoria Hislop.

Looking forward to part three

Just as enthralling and entertaining as the first book. So well described I am there in the scenes.
