Talking Books and All Things Italian with Frankie D
Frankie D and I had a great conversation about the two narrative nonfiction books I've written based on my family stories.
Trapped: The 1909 Cherry Mine Disaster was born from learning as a tiny girl that the grandfather who died before I was born, John Tintori, survived the historical mine disaster. Most of the 259 victims, like my grandfather, were Italian immigrants who came from Apennine towns in the province of Modena, Italy.
Unto the Daughters: The Legacy of an Honor Killing in a Sicilian American Family comes from an eighty-year family secret kept by my maternal grandmother's side of the family, immigrants from Sicily.
Frankie D is a great interviewer and I look forward to meeting him in person at Casa Italia's Literati Day. I hope you enjoy listening to us as much as I enjoyed speaking with him on Italian American Life Podcast.
Join Me for Casa Italia's Literati Day, May 21, 2022
I am excited to join Christina Marrocco and fellow Italian American authors for Casa Italia's 2022 Literati Day on Saturday, May 21, 2022. This yearly celebration of Italian American authors will be in person this year and will also be taped and made available later on YouTube. I will be discussing Trapped: The 1909 Cherry Mine Disaster, a tragedy of historical significance that took place less than 90 miles from Chicago, and also Unto the Daughters: The Legacy of an Honor Killing in a Sicilian American Family, and talking about publishing today.
Christina will be reading from her debut novel, Addio, Love Monster, which will be published by Ovunque Press on June 1, 2022, a beautiful book I highly recommend.

Watch as Lisa Scottoline and I Discuss Eternal at Detroit's Jewish Book Fair
Lisa Scottoline and I barely caught our breath as we took this deep dive into her 2021 release, Eternal — the sweeping, page-turning novel that has been simmering in her soul since her college days. Fueled by true events, this epic historical saga centers on a love triangle that unfolds in Rome under the creeping shadows of fascism, WWII, and the draconian racial laws that changed the lives of Rome's Jewish citizens forever.
