Praise for Danielle Trussoni:
The chapters are brilliantly written, with exacting details both of characterization and of setting. Indeed, the details of the tunnels have a sensory specificity that brings the reader implacably into the story's world; this achievement is even more remarkable, given the claustrophobia of these locales and the difficulty of making the characters more than "types," which the writer succeeds in doing with considerable grace. The material does not seem at all researched. It seems experienced, lived-through, and the final effect is revelatory and harrowing. Charles Baxter, author of The Feast of Love
Trussoni has taken an extended trip to hell and come back with treasures from that drunken, burning, broken place. She writes of the effects of war, the pity of war, and the pity that war distills without a hint of self-pity, with surprising humour, disarming candor, a hard-won wisdom and with uncannily sure-footed prose. Even if this book were not urgently important and devastatingly timely, Id still urge you to read it for the sheer triumph of the authors gift.Alexandra Fuller, author of Dont Lets Go to the Dogs Tonight
Trussonis memoir is a richly textured history of her fathers war and the long term effects his service had on her and her family. With Falling Through the Earth she delivers a salient and timely reminder that a wars victims arent limited to those in uniform nor demarcated by geography. This is an important and harrowing story.Anthony Swofford, author of Jarhead
Danielle Trussoni unflinchingly explores a daughters love for her flawed father and confronts the demons that haunt them both. Falling Through the Earth is tender and tough, harrowing and triumphant.Jeanette Walls, author of The Glass Castle
Like the fearless father she takes after, Danielle Trussoni tunnels at her
story from both ends: Through the rabbit hole of childhood, she explores a
tumultuous divorce. From the trench of adulthood, she leads us through a
country still poisoned by war. But Falling Through the Earth has an
innermost chamber. It is a place of profound depth and beauty, where
Trussoni unearths Trussoni herself. --Koren Zailckas, author of Smashed
