Literary Nonfiction. This book includes essays on the phenomenon of the "guido": its origins and its relationship to the Italian/American community. The writers share their own views on a phenomenon that, in December 2009/January 2010, was filling newspapers and television programs, in reaction to the then new reality show Jersey Shore. The community's "dirty laundry" was finally aired in public, without maintaining the convention of bella figura, as a modern and pluralistic community does and should do.
