More Description A Certain Remembrance is Linda Guglieri Dowling's inspiring autobiographical account of a woman of mettle determined to overcome obstacles to conquer the pitfalls in her path. "Shutting your eyes to trouble won't make it disappear," warns Dowling and then further instructs, "Face the facts and do something about it." Uniquely written, her life story is a narrative reflected by her older self reminiscing the twists and turns down many avenues as she travels on her journey of life. Linda's strong backbone comes from a warmhearted, Italian family heritage in a Long Island setting. Amusing incidents, like her role in the Gidget parade and squashing grapes in stockinged feet to make homemade wine will make a reader laugh out loud, while sorrowful experiences of losing her mother at the tender age of seventeen and holding a young child in her arms as he succumbed to leukemia will bring one to tears.
Her debut novella, A Certain Remembrance portrays Dowling's faith in God, her optimism, and her perseverance as they relate to love for family and friends and showcases her compelling short stories and profound poetry which mirror her inner strength. A Certain Remembrance demonstrates the powerful promise of hope for all those who walk 'streets' they never thought they would go down and will get to places they never thought they would achieve.
