Take the Cannoli


Take the Cannoli: Stories From the New World is a collection of essays by Sarah Vowell, originally published by Simon & Schuster in 2000. In it, she discusses everything from her obsession with The Godfather, music lessons, and the intersection of Michigan and Wacker in Chicago to her experience retracing her ancestors' journey on the Trail of Tears and more.

Reception
