Book Synopsis The Salty Mountain by : Cathy Appel
Book excerpt: The Salty Mountain is an historical narrative that weaves together the stories of three generations of women from a mountain village in the Campania region of Italy. Religious faith, witchcraft, the German occupation, birth, death, survival and prayer underlie this family's journey to America and their new life in Little Italy, the Bronx. It is a vibrant chronicle of events both humorous and deeply poignant, revealed through a breathtaking choreography of culture, geography and personalities, past and present, that revolve around the importance of home and family.
