But, as often happens in life, reality does not follow the schemes designed by humans: fate, perfidy and destiny, hinder the path established by the two lovers. The people of the town, who had seen the vocation of the young man as a collective good, receive the news of Stefano abandoning the seminary with disappointment and dismay. To escape the hostility, Stefano leaves for America with a promise to come back in a year, when he and Milena would get married and then both would go back to America together. However, once in New York Stefano faces loneliness, hard work, and the criminal underworld.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p>Toronto's<b> Damiano Pietropaolo</b> is an award-winning writer/broadcaster, director, translator, and educator.
