About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

From the multi-million copy best seller—a sweeping, sun-drenched story of love, family and untold secrets....

Proud grandmother Matelda Cabrelli always has something to say. But, as she faces the end of her life, she worries she's failed to tell the stories that matter. Most of all, she finds herself needing to tell the tale of her mother Domenica's two great loves.

First, Domenica's childhood sweetheart: a boy from her own small coastal town of Viareggio. Second, a mysterious captain: an infatuation forged in the midst of WW2, and the father Matelda never knew.

Now, before her time runs out, it falls to Matelda to tell Domenica's story. And for the Cabrelli women to unpick the mysteries, passions and tragedies that sent Domenica away from Italy—then brought her home again....

From Sunday Times best-selling author Adriana Trigiani comes The Good Left Undone, an emotional, immersive new novel full of secrets that unfold in breathtaking turns....
