Here is a mother lode of gold, till now unexplored. The richness of Italian American writings, seldom recognized, is at last given its due.Studs Terkel
From the Margin is must reading for the generation of Italian Americans who are the bridge between two cultures, to remember and enjoy the memories. It is also an important reference for their children, and their children's children, to learn and share a unique cultural experience.

Both nostalgia and scholarship are appealed to, and so are the taste buds: even the criticism refers unceasingly to pastry, a sip of wine, the scent of garlic on one's fingers. Buon appetito!Library Journal
. . . a brave venture long overdue. It contains a great deal of excellent writing, thoughtfully organized and carefully edited. By the sheer number of authors represented, we are made to know, if we did not already, the substanial extent of the Italian American literary tradition.J. T. Skerrett, Jr. MELUS
From the Margin makes a real contribution to the exploration of ethnic diversity in America and to the study of the cultural sociology of contemporary American society. It is a volume destined to place itself at the center of the landscape of works on Italian Americana.The Harvard Book Review
An important collection, From the Margin appropriately illustrates the second stage in the development of Italian American literature in the U.S.A.: after a long and laborious growth, a mature literature has emerged.Paolo Valesio Yale University
From the Margin makes for enjoyable and thought-provoking reading for North Americans of all ethnic subgroups.Southern Humanities Review
