New York, 1903. In a city full of opportunities but also prejudice, two Italian children, Diamante and Vita, arrive from a small village to face a harsh and chaotic reality. Through their experiences in the New York ghetto, the novel explores themes such as love, betrayal, survival, and the search for identity, blending fiction with a real historical basis rooted in family memories and period documents. Forty years later, in 1944, Vita's son travels to Italy as an American soldier during World War II, seeking answers about his past and his origins. This work by Melania G. Mazzucco is an epic and moving tale that transcends the conventional novel to become a vivid testimony of the immigrant experience and family memory.
