IAWA Welcomes Sweet Lemons 2 at Calandra on April 17 and Ethnic Encounters on April 18 at Cornelia St. Cafe

IAWA . (April 17, 2012)
Sweet Lemons unites international writings about Sicily under one roof. If you missed the first version, don't let that stop you from coming to hear authors read from Sweet Lemons 2.

Sweet Lermons 2 continues the tradition established in the first volume "Collectively, these writings serve as a remarkable testimony to the richness, diversity, tenacity, and adaptability of those who trace their roots (and their routes) to the ancient island of Sicily." This volume is an excellent guide to Sicelitude.Several dozen Sicilian-Canadaians and Sicilian-Americans reflect on what makes a Sicilian.
