Through a Portagee Gate (Portuguese in the Americas Series)
- Used Book in Good Condition
Through a Portagee Gate is both an autobiography and a biography. It gives a remarkably honest self-portrait and an endearing tribute to the authorâ€™s father, a Portuguese immigrant cobbler who came to America in 1915. The narrative reveals a deep desire to escape the confines of the immigrant, ethnic world, while also acknowledging a keen nostalgia about oneâ€™s past, a need to remember and recognize those who came before. Felix accomplishes this through unforgettable dialogue and vivid characterizations worthy of Steinbeckâ€”a prose sometimes poignant, at other times hilarious that strips human experience to its bare and powerful elements.
