The Flying Falcones Susan Payetta

The Flying Falcones is a story of love, loss and sausage. Lots of sausage! Rosemarie Catanzaro is a young successful career woman who takes a stand against racism and loses. At the age of 33 she's lost her job, her boyfriend and now her car. The only valuable asset Rosemarie owns is a ridiculously expensive shoe collection. To make ends meet she takes a minimum-wage job in the meat department of an Italian grocery store. Desperate to hang on to her fabulous apartment, Rosemarie is forced to find a roommate to share the cost. Her new life is rife with quirky characters. Circus performers cum sausage-makers, depraved and daffy co-workers and the disenfranchised conspire to transform Rosemarie's so-called life. Sometimes for the better.
