Fatherless

By A. M. Andino Rochon

Angelo's family is joyful, hard-working, devout, and kindhearted...except for Vito, the murderer among them. Spanning two centuries, describing Ellis Island immigration, world wars, the Great Depression, national prosperity, and recessions, FATHERLESS hails reconciliation after a fifty-year feud. It features Italian customs, cooking, and celebrations. Genograms of six generations display resilience.Born to a widow who was widowed again, Angelo helped raise his half siblings. Sicilian immigrants in steel-city Youngstown cherished him. He was a thoughtful boy. World War II brought Angelo to Algonac, Michigan, as a leader of men. Hope and love were his signature features. The village embraced him, commending his kindness. Wealthy by now, haunted by the memory of hunger, he built a church and treasured his family, who soon became fatherless.
