Introduction	I'm in an intercultural marriage (I'm American, he's Italian), and I work with international families, helping to smooth their transition to life in the U.S. I'm interested in language, culture, identity, families, and acculturation, and I love to read and discuss novels that explore these themes.
Favorite books	The Namesake by Jhumpa Lahiri, Digging to America by Anne Tyler, How the Garcia Girls Lost their Accents by Julia Alvarez, The Joy Luck Club by Amy Tan, Native Speaker by Chang-Rae Lee, Clash of Civilizations Over an Elevator in Piazza Vittorio by Amara Lakhous, The Strangeness of Beauty by Lydia Minatoya, Caucasia: A Novel by Danzy Senna
