Separated From SantoSeparated From Santo

In 1933, disturbed by the rise of Mussolini's fascist regime, Santo and Alice Pasqualini left their native Italy and settled in Vancouver, Canada, to create a better life away from the increasing trouble of Europe. Unfortunately, their refuge was short-lived, when Santo was arrested for being an "enemy alien" and interned first in Kananaskis, Alberta, and then in Petawawa, Ontario. Told in graphic novel formal, "Separated from Santo" depicts an individual who was mistreated, persevered, and eventually was reunited with his family.
