Literary Luncheon with Raffaela Marie Rizzo

Brought to you by: Story & Song Bookstore Bistro

Join us for the 10th Anniversary! Thank You for the Shoes by Raffaela Marie Rizzo

Thank You for the Shoes: Anniversary Edition is a medalist in the Florida Authors and Publishers Association annual awards and earned several five-star rankings in the Readers’ Favorites National listings.

A true story that reads like literary fiction. Based on the life of one man, Michelangelo Rizzo, it is an everyman story of an immigrant’s journey to America in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. It is an inspiring, hope-filled story that also illustrates the harsh realities of immigration, labor, and separation.
