A review by 12roxy
Murder in Matera: A True Story of Passion, Family, and Forgiveness in Southern Italy by Helene Stapinski

2.0

Good description of the detailed archival work and daily adventures of researching family history in Basilicata mixed abruptly with odd historical fiction sections, and all laced with a draining sense of the personal obsessions of the author. I would have preferred two books, and I would not have bothered to read the pulpy fictional one.
