New Novel Shows Immigrant's Determination to Return to the Country and Family He Loves
'Storm With No End' by Edna Cordova follows an Italian immigrant's struggle to escape Mussolini's army and come back to America.
Union City, CA (PRWEB) February 28, 2008 -- Based on her ex-husband's life, Edna Cordova's new book, Storm With No End, is an intensely dramatic story of how an immigrant braved terrible odds to right the wrong he felt he had done to his beloved America.
The immigration experience is at the heart of author Edna Cordova's incredible Storm With No End. Based on a novel she was writing with her ex-husband, Storm With No End is a portrait of one man's indelible love for his adopted country, America.
John Gregoris came to America as a small boy, and when he was in his twenties, he fell into bad trouble. Sentenced to 15 years in San Quentin prison for armed robbery, he was offered a volunteer deportation back to Italy. But once there, he was drafted into Mussolini's army. Unwilling to fight for the Fascist government, he stowed away on a ship, jumping into shark infested waters to get back to America.
Blisteringly authentic and heart wrenchingly told, this novel urges readers to never give up what is truest to their heart. Life may feel like "a storm without end," Cordova suggests, but there is always hope on the horizon.
