Forbidden Steps Under the Wisteria is a vivid account of the life of three generations of Latin American Women, the story of the women descended from a gipsy and a Sicilian Count. With fierce passion and in vivid images, tragic and happy tales are brought to life by Gabriela, the link that joins the past and the present.
“Copello’s absorbing account of Gabriela’s coming of age in the Argentine of the 40s and 50s is a garden of beauties and cruelties … and her fractured fairytale of growing up in the middle of machismo, decadence, wealth, poverty and dependency unfolds with a cinematic power.” Anna Maria Dell’Oso
“The most magical of magic realism. An enchanting account of a young girl’s growing up in South America and her relationship with her unforgettable father. Exotic, evocative and absolutely compelling reading.” Michael Wilding
