Beschreibung
"Da Brooklyn I Rememba" is a heartfelt journey through the streets of South Brooklyn, as told by Leonard M. De Virgilio and Sophia Vailakis-De Virgilio. This memoir takes readers into the vibrant Italian-American community of mid-20th-century New York, offering a rich tapestry of family stories, neighborhood traditions, and the simple joys of a bygone era. Through colorful anecdotes and vivid memories, Leonard reflects on the joys and challenges of growing up in a tightly-knit ethnic enclave where every block held history, laughter, and a lesson in life.
With humor, nostalgia, and a little mischief, "Da Brooklyn I Rememba" invites readers to rediscover the magic of a Brooklyn long gone-where friendships lasted a lifetime, games were played in the streets, and every day brought a new adventure. From the aroma of fresh calzones to the importance of holding onto your roots, this memoir celebrates the ordinary heroes who made Brooklyn legendary.
This book is a tribute to the working-class values, immigrant dreams, and community spirit that defined a generation. Perfect for anyone who cherishes tales of family, belonging, and finding joy in the small things, "Da Brooklyn I Rememba" will resonate with anyone who has ever called a neighborhood home.
