Italian-Americans At The Athenaeum Tomorrow

Tomorrow at the Athenaeum, a group of writers will be reading from the anthology Wild Dreams: The Best of Italian Americana. Writers attending the reading include co-editor Carol Bonomo (Ahearn) Albright and contributors Ann Hood, Mary Caponegro, Peter Covino, Christine Palamidessi Moore, and Christina Bevilacqua. Just the thing to rev one up for Saint Joseph’s Day, possibly my favorite food-related holiday, which is less than two weeks away.

Tangential story: during college, I used to work at the Warwick Mall with Ann Hood’s aunt, who was kind of mean and swore more than I had ever heard any old lady swear before (or since.) We got along really well, though, I think because I wasn’t a girl and could count money without making a big fuss about it.
