"The first book of real magnitude to come out of the last war." —John Dos Passos John Horne Burns brought The Gallery back from World War II, and on publication in 1947 it became a critically-acclaimed bestseller. However, Burns's early death at the age of 36 led to the subsequent neglect of this searching book, which captures the shock the war dealt to the preconceptions and ideals of the victorious Americans. Set in occupied Naples in 1944, The Gallery takes its name from the Galleria Umberto, a bombed-out arcade where everybody in town comes together in pursuit of food, drink, sex, money, and oblivion. A daring and enduring novel—one of the first to look directly at gay life in the military—The Gallery poignantly conveys the mixed feelings of the men and women who fought the war that made America a superpower.

Ciao Giulia is a raw, gutsy verbal performance that captures the reality of rape in ways you can’t imagine. Through the writing of a sparkling storyteller, we learn that healing comes from confrontation and psycho-physical penance. The sisterhood that nurtures Giulia back to humanness is a testament to women’s power to affect change in unique ways. There’s no writer like Chickie Farella. Fred L. Gardaphe Distinguished Professor of English and Italian American Studies Queens College/CUNY and the John D. Calandra Italian American Institute Chickie Farella is a creative visionary and truth-teller. Her work is fierce, courageous, honest, and enlightening. As a performance artist, creative nonfiction writer, and fiction writer, she seeks to shed light on the need for justice with compassion for humans and for the planet. In Ciao Giulia, she speaks with a writer’s voice that is bold, clear, and unflinching. Her work is a powerful addition to the literary canon of not only female writers—but all writers, male and female. Buy this book! Mary Saracino, author of Heretics: A Love Story (Pearlsong Press 2014) and The Singing of Swans (Pearlsong Press 2006) Chickie Farella has the remarkable ability to communicate core values in an accessible way with humor and authenticity. Chickie’s ability to embody truth-telling about injustice is reflected in her dramatic performances, her non-fictional published essays, and now in her fictional writing. Brava to this important voice in American Italian women scholars! Mary Beth Moser, PhD in Women’s Spirituality Author of “Honoring Darkness: Exploring the Power of Black Madonnas in Italy”

After the death of her longtime friend and flatmate, retired British history teacher Julia Garnet does something completely out of character: She takes a six-month rental on a modest apartment in Venice. She befriends a young Italian boy and English twins who are restoring a fourteenth-century chapel. And she falls in love for the first time in her life with an art dealer named Carlo. Juxtaposing Julia's journey of self-discovery with the apocryphal tale of Tobias and the Archangel Raphael, Miss Garnet's Angel tells a lyrical, incandescent story of love, loss, miracles, and redemption and of one woman's transformation and epiphany.
