Try Italian American Vincent Panella with his newest fiction on the immigrant experience in the early 20th century published by the wonderful Bordighera Press, "Sicilian Dreams," Snippet from a review, " "Ever wonder about the step-by-step of the lives of forebearers in homelands lost, left & returned to? About what life was really like in all fullness & detail, real & frail, on both ends? Wish for unforced narrative in explosive situations, redolent of family, betrayal and murder? Imagine instead of a bridge across the ocean, separating life there and life here, a tunnel connecting great characters & ideas, all of a piece & seamless? Panella beams us in."—Anthony Valerio
Dear Elizabeth, I had already seen the Washington Post article - brava! What I’m wondering is how to make contingency plans in case someone tests positive before flying home. Since we’re all vaccinated this is unlikely, but slightly possible. How would one find lodging in this case, at the last minute and with a positive test? It sounds daunting. Suggestions greatly appreciated!
Good question! I would suggest that you get travel insurance that covers the costs of such changes. For instance staying in a hotel, and/or changing your flight. That is what I'm suggesting.

Grazie!
Madeline Miller‘s books - “The Song of Achilles” and “Circe” - makes them come alive on the page. I have read them both and can’t wait to read more.
Just finished Song of Achilles and Circe is up next!
