The Italian Jersey girl story is told in Shirl's uniquely witty and inviting style. Those who lived it will remember a time when grandmas wore black, Saints were paraded down the street, and aunts, uncles, cousins and neighbors gathered on their front stoops to gossip at day's end. If you are Italian, you will laugh right along; if you are not, you will laugh anyway and feel as if you were part of this time and place. Come sit, read, eat........
