I came across one of my mothers favorite books the other day -- The Little World of Don Camillo. Its a collection of short stories written about a fictional small town in Italy after World War II -- actually there were several books. They featured Don Camillo. the towns ardently Catholic priest, and Peppne, its equally ardent Communist mayor. Polar opposites who ranted against each others ideology and then in a crisis would come together to save the people of the town. My mom loved the humanity of this, Id hear her chuckling happily as she read because, as far as she was concerned there was no belief system more important than humans. Going to try to remember that one, Mama.
