Overview

"""As one travels through this concise, engaging cultural autobiography, as I would call it, of Marra's many experiences, one realizes that he was much more than an observer. If by ""observe,"" we mean to notice and thus perceive something, understand it as being significant, and then act on it, we see that Marra was indeed a keen onlooker. At times, a fly on the wall, other times, an active participant. His work for NIAF and OSIA, especially, are testimony to these two roles he has and continues to play over the thirty-plus years among Italians and Italian Americans.""-from the Foreword by Anthony Julian Tamburri"
