Food, Feuds, and Forgiveness in an Italian American Family During Louise DeSalvo&apos s childhood in 1950s New Jersey, the kitchen becomes the site for fierce generational battle. Louise&apos s step-grandmother insists on recreating the domestic habits of her Southern Italian peasant upbringing, clashing with Louise&apos s convenience-food-loving mother Louise, meanwhile, dreams of cooking perfect fresh pasta in her own kitchen. But as Louise grows up to indulge in amazing food and travels to Italy herself, she arrives at a fuller and more compassionate picture of her own roots. And, in the process, she reveals that our image of the bounteous Italian American kitchen may exist in part to mask a sometimes painful history.

Her many books include the memoirs Vertigo, Breathless, and Adultery the acclaimed biography Virginia Woolf: The Impact of Childhood Sexual Abuse on her Life and Work and Writing as a Way of Healing.
