Concetta Falcone-Codding

The events described in The Lonely Nest take place in a small New England town and reveal what hides behind time and shame. With a sense of urgency, Concetta Falcone-Codding takes the reader through her family history, narrating four decades of secrets, deadly betrayals, and harm that destroyed the women in her family. Written from the perspective of her child-self, Falcone-Codding’s sensitive prose exposes the translucent line between witnessing abuse and being complicit in it.

The Lonely Nest is a story of domestic violence, incest, childhood loss, and courage written for all whose stories have yet to be heard.

Concetta Falcone-Codding was born in Norwich, Connecticut where she graduated from the Norwich Free Academy in 1971. She holds a Master of Arts in Special Education and a Sixth-Year Diploma as a Reading and Language Arts Consultant from the University of Connecticut. In addition to teaching, for over ten years she was a columnist for the Norwich Bulletin and developed a following bringing discrimination and injustice into the light. She lives in the woods with her husband Robert and dog Luna. Her words to live by: On your journey, do not share the same path as your abuser. When we resort to hate and violence, we become like our abusers. Use your voice to help others and follow the light above.
