In 1985, author Josephine Gattuso Hendin's grandparents were murdered in a so-called "honor killing." Her grandfather, a Sicilian immigrant, had killed her grandmother in a fit of jealous rage. Hendin's family was torn apart in the wake of the tragedy: her father was disowned by his siblings, and she and her mother were forced to flee their home.
For years, Hendin struggled to come to terms with the violence that had shattered her family. In this memoir, she finally confronts the truth of what happened that fateful night. Drawing on her own experiences as well as interviews with family members and friends, Hendin paints a vivid portrait of her grandparents' lives and the cultural context that led to their deaths.
The Legacy of an Honor Killing in a Sicilian American Family is a powerful and moving story about the devastating consequences of domestic violence. It is also a testament to the resilience of the human spirit. Hendin's story is a reminder that even in the darkest of times, it is possible to find hope and healing.
