Produktbeschreibung
Four Corners, an Italian American history, records the lives of three generations in one family and connects the past to the present. These stories span over one hundred years and are mostly true. There is no plot, no protagonist, just a recorded and remembered history. This book introduces the reader to a more family-centered society, both that of America and Italy, and illuminates one family's 20th century immigrant experience. Looking back one hundred years, remembering a history, Sangiolo reveals a universal story - an American immigrant story told in essays, poetry and verse. Her paternal grandparents were both born on the island of Salina in the archipelago of the Aeolian Islands off the coast of Milazzo, Sicily. When the Phylloxera aphid arrived at Salina in 1888 and destroyed the Malvasia grapes that provided a prosperous life for the people of Salina, they began to emigrate to Australia and the United States around the turn of the 20th century.
