Chronicle Of A Betrayal

Chronicle of a Betrayal is a tale set in two different historical periods and places: in Rome in 1944, after the American landing at Anzio, and in Brooklyn in the early 1980s. The protagonist is a sixty-year-old Italian-American living in Brooklyn. His orderly life is upended by a young robber’s intrusion into his apartment. The event triggers a whirlwind of memories taking him back to the war years when, as a youth, he became a partisan in a Rome on the verge of freedom. His early choices convince him to help the robber. Will he succeed?
