Title

Tutto il dolore, tutto l'amore [All of the Pain, All of the Love: A novel in an Italian American Environment]. San Francisco: L'Italia Press Company, Ed., 1926.

Description

The title page states, “Pubblicato nelle appendici del Giornale ‘L’Italia’ di San Francisco,” [Published as appendices of the San Francisco newspaper, L’Italia].

Like many of the works of both fiction and non-fiction (e.g., Carnovale, Il giornalismo) that follow in this collection, Pallavicini’s melodramatic romantic novel had been published serially in San Francisco’s popular newspaper owned and directed by one of the prominenti (“prominent ones,” i.e., prosperous members of the Italian American community), Ettore Patrizzi.

Like much of Pallavicini’s non-political works, especially radio dramas, this novel presents the intrigues and passions of young second-generation Italians in America, torn between their roots and the desire for success, and the tormented, drawn-out love affairs that reflected the conflict between affection for their family and striving to be American that separated them from parental love and guidance.

This work was also printed in Milan by Sonzogno in 1937, some eleven years after it first appeared in the U.S., not an uncommon phenomenon.
