Thank Goliath by Domenic Aversa is both fun and tragic, emotional and entertaining. With cutting intelligence and the wisdom acquired with age, Aversa sews together memories and experiences about the power of forgiveness, love and adversity.

A memoir at its core. Written with impeccable free-flowing prose, especially brilliant in dialogue, reading at times like a novel.

A personal yet universal tale that is canny, engrossing and distinctly inspiring. Self-Publishing Review
