Catalog! Don't Miss Reading This New Book Set In Bellport
It isn’t often that Bellport is the setting for a novel, which is why Linda Leuzzi’s new book, “My Year as the Italian Girl” is so interesting to Bellport residents! Currently being serialized in the Long Island Advance, “My Year as the Italian Girl” features a Sicilian exchange student named Francesca who comes to live for a year in Bellport, the divorced newspaper editor Vivian who hosts her, and a spunky girl, Keisha, who convinces Francesca to try out for the regional step competition. Leuzzi, who lives in Sayville, is the former editor of The Suffolk County News and Islip Bulletin. She’s written 8 non-fiction books, two of which were cited by the New York Public Library for their Best Books for the Teen Age list and has won several New York Press Association Awards for her newspaper work. Her experiences as a host mother for several Rotary exchange students, and as a former newspaper editor, prompted her to write this fiction book which celebrates the importance of community life and belief in one’s self. It also stresses tolerance and how our cultures are not so different. While Leuzzi isn’t a Bellport resident, she was respectful of the Village in her research. Permission was received to attend the step squad classes that took place at the time at Bellport High School and other functions. And she tapped two locals to read her manuscript before it debuted in the Advance for input on the locale’s accuracy and there are plenty of local scenes. She also visited Catania, the city where Francesca comes from, to provide an interesting glimpse of life there. A work of fiction, “My Year as the Italian Girl” is registered with the Library of Congress and the Writers Guild. You can learn more about the author via her website, www.lindaleuzzi.com.
