Beyond the Aterno

Quigley, David

Omschrijving

The true story of a remarkable woman, Addis Amicarella, who was born in the small commune of Acciano high above the Aterno River valley just before the outbreak of the Second World War. As one in a family of six, life was hard; you had to be tough to survive. At the age of only fifteen and speaking no English, she left to travel to Ireland in a bid to make a better life for her family. Finding work as a general dogsbody in a hotel there, she was soon able to send money home to Italy. But Addis was a keen learner and was always determined to move her life forward. From Italy to Ireland, from London to Yorkshire with a few stops on the way, this kind, pragmatic, decisive woman proves that there is life 'Beyond the Aterno...'
