Re-reading Italian Americana broadens the scope of Italian/American literary criticism by investigating the work of six authors and the degree to which they successfully represent Italian Americana in their prose or poetry. Highlighting the work of Pietro di Donato, Mario Puzo, Luigi Barzini, Joseph Tusiani, Maria Mazziotti Gillan, and Rina Ferrarelli, this book examines the current state of analysis dedicated to this topic and its reception both in the United States and in Italy

    Growing up an Italian-American in the Bensonhurst neighborhood of New York city, Marianna De Marco longed for college, culture, and upward mobility. Her daydreams circled around WASP (White Anglo Saxon Protestant) heroes on television-like Robin Hood and the Cartwright family-but in Brooklyn she never encountered any. So she associated moving up with Ocean Parkway, a street that divides the working-class Italian neighborhood where she was born from the middle-class Jewish neighborhood into which she married. This book is Torgovnick's unflinching account of crossing cultural boundaries in Ameri Part one. Crossing ocean parkway -- part two. Readings by an Italian American daughter.
