Crazy for Italian Food

Perdutamente; a Memoir of Family, Food, and Place with Recipes

Joe Famularo takes us back to the sights, sounds and mostly delicious smells of life in an Italian- American household on New York's far west side during the middle of the twentieth century. And best of all, not only does he describe the remarkable food, at the end of each chapter he gives beautifully- worked- out and irresistible recipes for it. In the best of all worlds a person could sit at the table eating one of his glorious meals and reading about his family.
