In an unsentimental departure from the conventional immigrant family saga, the linked stories of THE SONS OF THE SANTORELLI feature the collision of great hope and whittling circumstance. Tony Taddei invites us into the home of the Santorelli family with its plastic Pietà , lace doilies, and behemoth TV, and paints a vivid portrait of a time and place.
Fiction.
