France in 2014 by Les Editions Noir sur Blanc, Paris" --
verso.
520 "New York, November 3, 1954. In a few days, the
immigration inspection station on Ellis Island will close
its doors forever. John Mitchell, an officer of the Bureau
of Immigration, is the guardian and last resident of the
island. As Mitchell looks back over forty-five years as
gatekeeper to America and its promise of a better life, he
recalls his brief marriage to his beloved wife Liz, and is
haunted by memories of a transgression involving Nella, an
immigrant from Sardinia. Told is a series of poignant
diary entries, this is a story of responsibility, love,
fidelity, and remorse."--Back cover.
