THE LOVE OF YOUR LIFE: a book of essays




Praise forThe Love of Your Life”
What a lovely book!  Rose Marie Dunphy is a mother, a sister, a friend who may help you find spiritual growth in things ever so small, which suddenly, through her eyes, become ever so big and meaningful: a cast-iron stove or a line of washed clothes, an Italian uncle or a table lamp. "The Love of your Life" exudes the pride of simple gestures, the nobility of housework, the love of everyday life. Written with levity and grace, this book is a string of pearls. Each story, a pearl perfectly round and shining clear. Each story, movingly Italian flavored and exquisitely American, a joy to read – Dr. Ilaria Serra, Associate Professor of Italian and Comparative Studies, Florida Atlantic University, Boca Raton, FL
