No murders, no bodies, just a simple tale of two formally conjoined almost twins journey to find themselves in a diverse New Ark -- a suburb of New York City
Adventures, and misadventures, with eccentric characters, fill this quirky read about Luigi and Guido, abandoned by their mother (a convent novitiate nun) at a Mormon Mini-Temple in Italy.
Luigi and Guido grow up with an adopted Italian father who rubbed pigs and an Irish mother who danced for a living. When their professions died out, they started an Irish pizza restaurant in the pork capital of Italy.
After their 5th year of high school, and the help of Bro's studying in Italy, the almost twins make their way from Italy to New Ark - a suburb of New York City, to find their fame and fortune.
Their innocence in their travels and interesting decisions make this riotous book a must read.
The opening of their restaurant in the Kennington Court area in Newark is absurdity at its best.
Their sister, also abandoned by the same mother, joins them later with her own humorous journey on the same ship Luigi and Guido came over on - The New Sole.
The business is slow in Kennington Court until they decide to make green pizza in honor of their parents, using locally sourced Oregano to make it green.
The restaurant business grows. Soon a small taco stand opens nearby, owned by a mother and twin daughters.
To add to the confusion and mayhem - Parents, grandparents and biological mother all show up at the same time - not known to each other!
That's when it gets even more interesting!
