MAITLAND, FL— Rosemary
Neri Villanella’s new book Duck And Cover: A Memoir
of My 1960's Brooklyn ($20.99, paperback, 9781498499736; $9.99, eBook, 9781498499743) portrays the personal but universal
journey from childhood to adolescence of a girl living in a more innocent time,
but with a complicated family life. She wants to be true to her values, yet
wants "more" from life, even though she isn't yet sure what that
"more" is. The book will inspire young people to keep striving for
their own personal version of "more" as they grow into young
adulthood, without abandoning the things that make them unique as a person.
Rosemary Neri Villanella says, “ Brooklyn was always home, but now it is also
hip - my personal story of the familiar but almost-forgotten Brooklyn of 1960
will appeal to the estimated 25% of the US population who have (or wish they
had) a connection with Brooklyn - a place whose name is recognized worldwide.”
Rosemary Neri Villanella was born and raised in
Brooklyn and no one else has lived her unique life or could write about it the
way she does. She has been writing since she attended Brooklyn's Lafayette High
School and is both very self-aware and knowledgeable about the moral and
psychological development and needs of children and adolescents. Rosemary was a
teacher for many years and is also an avid reader, a continual student and
great believer in education, both self and formal.
