Goodreads asked Adriana Trigiani:

Where did you get the idea for your most recent book?

Adriana Trigiani "The Good Left Undone" is a novel that takes place in contemporary Italy, the Italy of the last century, southern France and Scotland- I found the story while directing a movie in Scotland- which I married to an idea which I heard from my cousins in Italy- it's the story of a woman who is matriarch of her family who feels she has failed to tell the truth of their story- her mother's story...it took many years to get here- to streamline the ideas and create a page-turner- you will tell me if I succeeded- I surely hope I did!
