description: Frank Paci has been called one of the fathers of Italian-Canadian writing. His book, The Italians, was the first English novel to deal with the experience of Italian immigrants in Canada. Since 1978 Paci has chronicled this experience in powerful realistic narratives which have inspired other writers. The essays collected in this volume deal with some of Paci's eight novels and explore several literary themes, moral questions and philosophical preoccupations of this little known author - from the introduction by Joseph Pivato. Essays by Caterina Edwards, Roberta Sciff-Zamaro, Enoch Panofsky, Anna Carlevaris, Marino Tuzi, Gaetano Rando and Joseph Pivato. A brief biography of F. G. Paci, and an interview in three parts by C. D. Minni and Joseph Pivato are included.
