A Sicilian Family

Maria and Mario got married young after a situation that happened when she was young; she had to sneak to see him, but when she was nineteen and he was twenty–one, they were given a lovely wedding. They loved each other and had three sons and a daughter very close in age. This is the story of their lives as parents. A situation occurred, forcing Maria, Mario, and their young daughter to move to America. Two of her sons were at a university in Sicily. Mario had a very successful business growing grapes and making wines and olive oil. He exported to America and at local markets in Italy. His one son then took over the business and was paid a lot of money. There was great sadness that occurred in the family, apart from joyful times. Life took many twists and turns. I hope you enjoy this fictional novel, A Sicilian Family.
