My Name Is Vittoria by Dafna Vitale Ben Bassat
3.0
A bit rough, but a good read
This book started off a bit rough/slow, but picked up and told a story that needed to be written. My love for genealogy, history, and my Italian heritage drew me into it and I thought it was special that it was written by the main character's granddaughter. I also think it's important because a lot of people seem to forget the history of the Italian Jews during WWII (at least in the United States), so I liked that some of their stories were included here.
