In “Italianitá,” William (Bill) Giovinazzo explores the culture and history of Italians and Italian Americans – from the time when the Greeks colonized Italy to the influx of Italian immigrants in the 19th and 20th centuries to John Travolta strutting his stuff in a New York disco. Giovinazzo describes “Italianitá” or the essence of being Italian, as a complex and multifaceted entity.
To educate his readers on what Italianitá is and why this special quality binds people together, Giovinazzo uses an extremely entertaining, while still insightful, style of writing to draw readers to keep turning the pages. From page one, it is wildly evident that Giovinazzo’s love for his Italian roots runs deep. If you didn’t catch it there, the section titled “For Christ’s Sake, Go!” will easily affirm his love for his Italianitá.
