Rosina (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781947175853)

Rosina is an innocent, convent-raised girl who emigrates from Italy to America with high hopes and optimism. She marries Nicola Sacco, a passionate advocate for workers' rights and nonviolent protest, and soon finds herself drawn into his world. Befriended by the poet and philosopher, Bartolomeo Vanzetti, they become activists for the cause. However, the political climate is changing and the movement grows violent. The young couple is soon dragged into a nightmare that engulfs her dreams of a peaceful family life. In this sensitive exploration of love, loyalty, and the consequences of bigotry, the story of Rosina is just as relevant today in a climate of social strife and prejudice against immigrants. Will the love and support be enough to save their lives?
