Book excerpt: A dream trip to Italy can only result in the best, most luxurious vacation with no unfortunate mistakes. Or maybe that’s too much to hope for... Gus can’t wait to get off the cramped flight from Canada to Italy and enjoy the bus tour across Naples, Rome, and other history- and wine-filled locations. Mitch, his eight-month-pregnant girlfriend, is less excited. And Thor? Well, being ten months old, it’s not at the top of his to-do list. Still, this is the trip of a lifetime—and it’s free! Except that after the somewhat disastrous flight, their decrepit old tour bus takes them four hours away from civilization to...Favola? Who’s ever heard of such a town? After the worst night of their lives in a hotel room that’s more like a jail cell, Gus and Mitch are taken in by an old-world Italian family whose highly religious matriarch is determined to get them married before they leave. Going home may be an issue, though, when their passports are accidentally thrown away. Now Gus must find a way to get his hands on fake ones before Mitch finds out the truth. Lost shoes, public nudity, and a police raid later, a mysterious stranger may be the answer to their troubles—or their biggest problem yet. That Time in Italy is an entertaining, humorous story of everything going wrong, how not to handle problems, and the growing pains of appreciating a strange new kind of life (even without extra-large coffees).

Download or read book The Lady of Sing Sing written by Idanna Pucci and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2020-03-10 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This “gripping social history” (Publishers Weekly), with all the passion and pathos of a classic opera, chronicles the riveting first campaign against the death penalty waged in 1895 by American pioneer activist, Cora Slocomb, Countess of Brazzà, to save the life of a twenty-year-old illiterate Italian immigrant, Maria Barbella, who killed the man who had abused her. Previously published as The Trials of Maria Barbella. In 1895, a twenty-two-year-old Italian seamstress named Maria Barbella was accused of murdering her lover, Domenico Cataldo, after he seduced her and broke his promise to marry her. Following a sensational trial filled with inept lawyers, dishonest reporters and editors, and a crooked judge repaying political favors, the illiterate immigrant became the first woman sentenced to the newly invented electric chair at Sing Sing, where she is also the first female prisoner. Behind the scenes, a corporate war raged for the monopoly of electricity pitting two giants, Edison and Westinghouse with Nikola Tesla at his side, against each other. Enter Cora Slocomb, an American-born Italian aristocrat and activist, who launched the first campaign against the death penalty to save Maria. Rallying the New York press, Cora reached out across the social divide—from the mansions of Fifth Avenue to the tenements of Little Italy. Maria’s “crime of honor” quickly becomes a cause celebre, seizing the nation’s attention. Idanna Pucci, Cora’s great-granddaughter, masterfully recounts this astonishing story by drawing on original research and documents from the US and Italy. This dramatic page-turner, interwoven with twists and unexpected turns, grapples with the tragedy of immigration, capital punishment, ethnic prejudice, criminal justice, corporate greed, violence against women, and a woman’s right to reject the role of victim. Over a century later, this story is as urgent as ever.
