The Italian

The first time on that ship, I never knew much about America nor American tradition. I…. I was just a clueless Italian woman who got a ticket to go to America due to my good looks.

Then as we were dropped off the ship, I was taken to what was and Northern America; New York.

I vowed to be just like my husband. A sailor. The first woman sailor as I signed my divorce papers in front of the whole of the court.

There began my story.

And then there was Tommy.
