Swimming in the Moon: A Novel |

In 1905, young Lucia & her mom immigrate from Italy to Cleveland. Maybe that's a bit of why I love it. Living outside Cleveland & having family roots there made Lucia's journey familiar to me. Every time she took a streetcar, I imagined my great-greatgrandfather as the brakeman. You couldn't help rooting for Lucia as she went from Central High to the garment workers' strike of 1911 & everything in between.
