    About this ebook

    The Last Cannoli is a fast-paced read in a voice that is fresh and powerful. It introduces the Donitella family—tribe might be more fitting. Spanning four decades the novel opens its mouth-watering tale in the '50s when the father's ritual story-telling begins to take on the power of prayer. The Donitellas will stay with you and you'll keep thinking of them as one thinks of interesting people one has just met. Think "100 Years of Solitude" generously spiced a la Siciliana and with a magical realism that leaves you sated, body and soul, for a long time to come.
