He was never meant to rise—yet he did. From the riverbanks of Aguascalientes to the turbulence of the Texas foster care system, Anthony Gonzalez Harris’ journey is a raw, unflinching testament to survival, faith, and transformation.

"After Italy: A Family Memoir of Arranged Marriage" is the story of two marriages undone by a dowry and the fallout from that rift on three generations of a Southern Italian family. Enlisting Calabrian folklore, epigenetics, and psychology, Monardo writes from both sides of the ocean, charting her grandfathers’ immigration to a Pittsburgh steel town; her father’s WWII as a medical student in Naples; the family’s marriages—including her own—that were tainted by an Old World curse; and an unlikely path toward international adoption.

She filled her room with posters and pink, and her family with joy.

This book isn't just another war story. It’s a raw, irreverent rollercoaster ride through addiction, absurdity, elite military service, and the relentless pursuit of something authentic in a world that rewards bullshit.
