Language of My Choosing : a creative Scots-Italian memoir Paperback / softback
by Anne Pia
Paperback / softback
Description
Where do I truly belong? This is the question Anne Pia continually asked of herself growing up in the Italian-Scots community of post-World War Two Edinburgh. This candid, vibrant memoir shares her struggle to bridge the gap between a traditional immigrant way of life and attaining her goal of becoming an independent-minded professional woman. Through her journey beyond the expectations of family, she discovers how much relationships with other people enhance, inhibit and ultimately define self.
Yet - like her relationship with her own mother - her 'belonging' in her Italian and Scottish heritages remains to this day unresolved and complex.
