efestivalofwords.com/2013-efestival-of-words-winners-t473.html___________________________________________________________________________ Since the start of the 20th Century, the Italians and Chinese in the Little Italy/Chinatown area in New York City have endured an uneasy truce. In the first three quarters of the century, the Italians ruled the neighborhood with an iron fist. But starting in the 1970's, the dynamics began to change, as more Italians moved out and droves of Chinese began flowing into Chinatown from China. This did not bode well for Italian mob boss Tony Bentimova (Tony B), so he enlisted the help of his most trusted killer, Big Fat Fanny Fanelli, all six foot six inches and six hundred and sixty pounds of her, to ensure the Italians maintained control of all the illegal rackets in Little Italy, which was slowly, but surely being transformed into Chinatown. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

From the Author:
"Joe Bruno has captured the essence of Lower East Side street mentality in this work. Unless one immerses himself in this type of environment in real life, there is no way you can make this stuff up. Having grown up in New York's
Little Italy, I can fully relate to and appreciate the vignettes he paints. His
staccato style is a perfect match for the wild situations and colorful characters that inhabit Fat Fanny's world, which features Fanny herself as the leading
lady. Get ready to laugh your ass off. Each chapter is like a jolt of Red Bull on steroids. Buckle up and enjoy the ride." - LV -

Magazine, Razor Magazine, Boxing Today, Boxing World, International Boxing Digest, Referee Magazine and Inside Boxing.

Writing "Find Big Fat Fanny Fast" was a roller-coaster ride, reliving my experiences of the past 50 years. I'd estimate, 50% of the scenes in the novel actually happened to either me, my family or my friends (except the murders of course). All the characters are composites of people that have actually been part of my life. To reduce the possibility of a sudden "accident," names have been changed to protect the author.
In my last novel "Angel of Death," no character was based on any person I knew. Every scene was invented by my fertile imagination. That was drudgery, not the joy ride I experienced penning "Find Big Fat Fanny Fast."
I have enough additional personal experiences to write a sequel of "Find Big Fat Fanny Fast." Which ones will I use? I won't know until I start the process.
