Buon Giorno, I would appreciate you posting the following information about my novel, A Brooklyn Saga for those in your Society that may be interested in reading it. Grazie! The post includes: Tis the season…thinking of gifts for your family and friends? My novel, A Brooklyn Saga might be the perfect gift for those that just love the Italian culture! This story traces the steps of Angelina Carpello as she navigates her life sitting on her stoop on Conselyea Street in the Italian neighborhood of Williamsburg Brooklyn during the 1950s-60s-70s! As Angie grows up playing stickball and games like Ringolevio and Johnny-on-the-Pony with neighborhood friends, she is tasked to tackle Mob mentality, Catholic Church vagaries and Old-World Italian culture. When she meets a Chinese man Wengchan Liang, a hitman/runner for the Mafia, their collision course rescues her from a life-threatening situation and finds for him a long-sought redemption. To purchase an author signed copy go to my website at: abrooklynsagabook.com. Also available on Amazon and Barnes & Noble.

Historical fiction novel about Brooklyn, New York. A tale of international intrigue, Italian culture (food!), Mafia mayhem, diversity, and unexpected redemption on the streets of the congenial neighborhood of Williamsburg, circa 1950s-1970s!

What is wrong with people??

"So I’m driving down the road this morning and the cars in front of me are driving over a black thing in the road. It’s going between their tires so I’m guessing it’s a box. It’s a kitten just sitting upright shaking like a leaf. And some as***le had spread glue on its paws and stuck it to the road. I thought maybe it walked through glue somewhere but after looking at it, that was totally spread into her paws. She was wet and freezing and literally glued to the road. And NO ONE STOPPED. 😳 What the f$&k people??? I slammed on my brakes and stopped all the traffic and put my hazards on and got out and pealed her off the road. People were honking and all pissy....really??? It’s a kitten glued to the road!! So after a goo gone bath and some food and cream we have a new kitten. Luckiest kitten in the world!"

BUON FERRAGOSTO!

Ferragosto is the most important day of summer in Italy. It celebrates the middle of the Italian summer and marks the unofficial start of Italy's summer holiday season. Italy effectively shuts down until the start of September as schools and businesses close for the summer break and many people take a trip to the countryside, lakes or the coast to escape from the stifling heat of the cities.
