Through this masterful evocation of a time and place, Tony Romano, the acclaimed author of \u003cem\u003eWhen the World Was Young\u003c\/em\u003e, brings a first-generation Italian American family vividly and poignantly alive in closely related tales at once joyous, heartbreaking, and honest. Weaving two dozen stories into a stunning, cohesive family history, Romano gives readers hope for togetherness amid the painful generational cycle of loss and redemption--as children grow and learn, and decide which treasures of cultural inheritance they will cherish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Harper Perennial\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/23\/2008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780060857943\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 272\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.55lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.30w x 0.70d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e Society of Midland Authors Award - Finalist\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReview Citations: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 10\/15\/2008 pg. 1090\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 10\/20\/2008 pg. 33\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/15\/2008 pg. 23\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 01\/15\/2009 pg. 86\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eSchool Library Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 04\/01\/2009 pg. 152\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Tony Romano","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51707946500277,"sku":"9780060857943","price":12.74,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_0300e258-1da6-4780-a159-f8528b935301.jpg?v=1757396792","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/if-you-eat-you-never-die-chicago-tales-9780060857943","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
