Om Such Is Life: A Memoir
Literary Nonfiction. Memoir. Bilingual Edition. Translated from the Italian by Laura E. Ruberto. "An immigrant woman's moving account of what one gains, but also what one loses, when emigrating to the U.S. from a village in rural Campania. All those who have been uprooted from their homes can identify with this Southern Italian woman's life story--marked by acceptance of hardship and the poetic memory of the village in which she was born and to which she could not bear to return"--Paola Alessandra Sensi-Isolani, Professor of Anthropology, St. Mary's College of California.
