Pamela Schoenewaldt's first historical novel of immigration, USAToday Bestseller, When We Were Strangers (2011), was a Barnes & Noble Great Discovery. Her second, Swimming in the Moon, was short-listed for the Langum Prize in American Historical Fiction. Under the Same Blue Sky (May 2015) tells of a young woman whose mysterious healing powers confront the devastation of World War I. Pamela lived for ten years outside Naples, Italy, an experience which inspired her first two novels. She lives in Knoxville, Tennessee with her husband, Maurizio Conti, a physicist and Jesse, their philosopher-dog.

I really enjoyed this book. Irma's time in Opi was slow to get through, but after that the book was a quick read. Once Irma got to America I was sucked into the story.

What a great glimpse into what people had to go through to get to America and make a life for themselves. Such a strong person Irma was.
