A startling and soft portrait of one family's struggle to make peace with the son's fatality. An ingeniously split narrative told during the period of seven days, Eddie Joyce's debut book masterfully depicts an Italian-Irish American family on Staten Island and their complicated psychological history. Ten years after the lack of Bobby - the Amendola family's youngest son - many people are still struggling to recover from the firefighter's sudden death. Bobby's mother, Gail; his widow, Tina; his old brothers, Peter, the corporate attorney, and Franky, the misfit; and his dad, Michael, have all handled their grief in several ways. But as the family gathers jointly for Bobby Jr.'s birthday party, they need to each discover a way to accept a fresh man in Tina's life while reconciling their feelings because of their lost cherished one. Presented through multiple tips of view, Small Mercies explores the issues and deep accessories that exist within young families. Heart-wrenching and profoundly relatable, Joyce's debut is a love notice to Staten Island and a deeply impacting on portrait of American family.
