Sommario/riassunto: | For more than thirty years, the journal Italian Americana has been home to the writers who have sparked an extraordinary literary explosion in Italian-American culture. Across twenty-five volumes, its poets, memoirists, story-tellers, and other voices bridged generations to forge a brilliant body of expressive works that help define an Italian-American imagination.Wild Dreams offers the very best from those pages: sixty-three pieces?fiction, memoir, poetry, story, and interview?that range widely in style and sentiment, tracing the arc of an immigrant culture?s coming of age in America.
