The Italian Cultural Institute of San Francisco recently welcomed Italian author Michele Cecchini who presented his acclaimed novel, "Per Il Bene Chi Ti Voglio" to a Bay Area audience. The novel, now in its fourth printing, speaks of the bittersweet experiences of the protagonist, Antonio Bevilacqua, as he emigrates from Lucca, Italy to San Francisco. Antonio's journey explores the search for "his America".
This year, 2016, was Michele's second visit to San Francisco, the first being when he visited relatives in 1989. When L'Italo-Americano spoke with Michele during his recent visit, he was quick to say "Please don't be shy to correct my macaroni-grammar."
