Description
A well-rounded author, Gail Reitano’s debut as a novel-writer is a hit amongst many. Italian Love Cake follows the story of Marie Genovese, a first-generation Italian-American woman during the Depression-era, struggling to keep the store she inherited from her mother afloat. Marie is thwarted in her self-expression and autonomy while also asserting her own mind on the way to achieving her economic dreams. Reitano explores the perspective of women in a deeply patriarchal culture while frequently crossing the boundaries between feminine exaltation and masculine power.
