"The volume, as a whole, is a pleasant read and a welcomed new and forward-looking perspective on Italian migration. " --Italica
"Laura E. Ruberto and Joseph Sciorra have constellated exacting, often revelatory treatments of the 'rebooting of Italian America' from 1945 to present: radio-conducted familial intimacies, an iconography of luscious Italian female beauty, the U.S. conquests of Italian cuisine, the brain drain of Italian elites into the American academy, and more. Volume two of New Italian Migrations to the United States is of timely value not only to Italian Americanists but to all scholars of late-century cultural flows, which turn out to be globally incorporative and transformatively procreative not despite but because they are ethnic specific and mass-mediated."--Thomas J. Ferraro, author of Feeling Italian: The Art of Ethnicity in America
"Editors Ruberto and Sciorra have provided an excellent resource for both students and researchers of Italian-American Studies, and of Italian Americans, whether referring to the "imaginary Italians" to whom the volume is dedicated, or the "real Italians" who grace its pages." --Quaderni d'italianistica
