Joanne Trattoria Cookbook written by Joseph Germanotta. Joanne's Cookbook photos

Joanne's Cookbook was published by Joanne's brother, Joe a few years after the trattoria came about. In the creation of this cookbook, Joe published this and is selling this on all forms; bookstores, the restaurant, amazon, and other websites. With this publication of Joanne, entailing family recipies and family photos, the memory of Joanne goes into the public space of people's personal homes. This choice to publish the cookbook shares Joe's perception changes of the public memory of Joanne. 

There is an intimacy gained here between the cookbook and its readers. The ability for Joe to publish the family photos, the struggles, and the family recipies shares his breakthrough with the memory of his sister. This can be heavily influences by Gaga's fameness, and her publicness with her personal life. Additionally, with the success and positive responses with the album "Joanne," Joe feels comfortable enough to release his art, the art of food. The way this cookbook works in the memorialization of Joanne serves as an item that brings her public memorial to people's homes. 

This cookbook shares the coming together of the memorial as Joe's acceptance of Joanne use public narrative.
