Con Amore: A Daughter-In-Law's Story of Growing Up Italian-American in Bushwick (Via Folios, 35)

Cultural Writing. Memoir. Yearning for acceptance from her Italian-speaking mother-in-law, Bea Tusiani's stories offer a glimpse into the struggle of generations. From Bushwick, Brooklyn in the 1950's to her mother-in-law's kitchen in the Bronx, Tusiani shows how two women who loved the same man, one as a mother, the other a wife, came to an understanding . . . con amore . . . with love. "You will find much to celebrate in this beautifully told tale"--Adriana Trigiani.
