Born in a small, impoverished town in northern Italy, Evo J.
DeConcini enjoyed school and wanted nothing more than to further
his education. He followed his older brothers to America in 1946,
at the age of fourteen, eager to take advantage of the
opportunities offered by this new world.
As he worked toward a bright future in America--learning
English, going to graduate school, and eventually entering the
political realm--he also strengthened his ties to the past by
researching his family history. "A True Story" jumps backward and
forward in time, detailing the lives of the DeConcinis in
sixteenth-century Europe and turn-of-the-century America, returning
to Evo J.'s life as he continued to pursue the American dream.
