Anthony Buccino's collection about growing up Italian American in New Jersey and discovering the roots of his ancestors. Read about the old neighborhood where the 'bianca lina' man sold bleach to make the white linens; and the young boy growing up in the house his grandfather built, and living upstairs from his scary grandma who spoke no English. This American boy discovers the land his ancestors left to make a better life for his generation. The pigeons that follow him throughout Italy provide the connection to his father - who raised homers - who didn't speak English until he started school - the rich heritage of the old country, and the enormous sacrifice of his grandparents. Despite its title, Sometimes I Swear In Italian contains no profanity in any language.
