What do you get when you add a little Italian, a little South African and a whole lot of love? A legacy of classic yet contemporary dishes from the Café del Sol family kitchen. Chiara and Ryan have transferred the treasured memories of both their Nonnas, as well as their Mama Luciana, to the tables of Café del Sol, and now this cookbook. Basking in a combined Italian and South African heritage, the Treccani family knows how to put heart and soul into presenting the most mouth-watering food to its guests, and now you the reader, from colazione (breakfast) and antipasto (appetisers), through primo (pasta and risotto) and secondo (second main courses), to desserts and cocktails. If you’re not hungry simply by paging through this book, you can’t be alive. So why not join the fun of this taste extravaganza and delight your family and guests by recreating these dishes. Who knows, you may start your own legacy of love. Buon apetito!

Do you know the name of the Italian-American that the U.S. government now recognizes as the true inventor of the telephone? Do you know the name of the Tuscan colonist who Thomas Jefferson paraphrased in his famous all men are created equal clause in the Declaration of Independence?

More than likely, you answered, No, to these questions and were raised being bombarded by a barrage of lies about your culture insteadof learning about its offsprings profound effect on this country and the world.

Neorealism emerged as a cultural exchange and a field of discourse that served to shift the confines of creativity and revise the terms of artistic expression not only in Italy but worldwide. If neorealism was thus a global phenomenon, it is because of its revolutionary portrayal of a transformative moment in the local, regional, and national histories of Italy. At once guiding and guided by that transformative moment, neorealist texts took up, reflected, and performed the contentious conditions of their creation, not just at the level of narrative content but also in their form, language, and structure. Italian Neorealism: A Cultural History demonstrates how they did so through a series of representative case studies. Recounting the history of a generation of artists, this study offers fundamental insights into one of the most innovative and influential cultural moments of the twentieth century.
