Very Inspiring Memoir!
Revisado: 08-31-17
I just finished listening to the audiobook of “My Father’s Daughter: From Rome to Sicily”. I absolutely loved it!
This story was very well written as Glida Morina Syverson explains her journey in detail as she traveled with her husband and her parents to Italy.
Gilda talks about the rich history of Italy as well as connecting with family there. How life is so much different in Italy than in the United States but yet how the cultures and respect to family are still somewhat the same between there and here. Also how we have similar traits as others in the family but loving and accepting not only them as they are but ourselves too, unconditionally. She has realism as well as a dash of mysticism throughout her story. I was enveloped as I listened and felt like I was part of the journey. I felt various emotions from laughter, angst, teary, excitement and happiness. I looked forward to hearing what was next on the itinerary of the journey.
I am sure writing this was very much therapeutic as it was healing. What a precious gift this trip was for everyone that was involved. I found this very inspiring.
Thank you Glida Morina Syverson for writing and sharing your story with the world.
