Southampton Summers: Stories of Three Italian Families, Their Beach Houses, and the Five Generations that Enjoyed Them

This book brings together a collection of memoirs written by 16 different individuals, all members of three units of the same extended Italian family. All of the authors have spent summer vacations at the family's three adjoining bungalows located in the Town of Southampton, New York, over a sixty-year period extending from the 1950s to the early 2000s and beyond.What you take from these narratives depends on where you are in time and place when you read them, and how you listen to and process what is said and what goes unsaid. I guarantee they will evoke some significant memories of your own childhood summers and the meaning of family and rituals in your life. Listen to what's between the lines and hear your own stories flooding back.
