Strangers in a Strange Land: A Survey of Italian-Language American Books (1830-1945)

By James J. Periconi

This unique and remarkable catalogue raisonn e may well represent the corner stone of a long needed Italian American Archive, the entry-point to the social, political and literary micro-history of one of the largest migrations in modern times. Witnesses and protagonists of the struggle of living and negotiating two or three languages and cultures constitute the warp and woof of our layered identities, microcosms of the past that will shape our future. Bravo and grazie to Periconi -Peter Carravetta, Alfonse M. D'Amato Professor of Italian and Italian American Studies, SUNY at Stony Brook
