The End of Aphrodite

In the haunting wake of a young girl's disappearance, the disparate lives of four women are woven together in an engrossing tale that spans decades. . . . Themes of desire, loss, Catholicism, and Italian Americana intersect as relationships emerge that are at once profoundly compassionate and infuriatingly human. Written with vivid lyricism and sensual prose, The End of Aphrodite is a mesmerizing read about women reclaiming their agency in a violent and patriarchal world. – Olivia Kate Cerrone
