Publisher's blurb: Yes, we are all a little bit over Tuscany- and Chianti and Umbria. But there is still a part of Italy that many outsiders have not discovered. In the same spirit as her successful "Playing with Chopsticks", Sally drove around the other Italy - the boot, Sardina, Le Marche and Sicily. Staying in monastery guest rooms, on agriturismo farms, and pensiones, Sally and husband George meet the locals, records their own bloopers and breakthroughs with language and taste the home style cooking, said to be some of the best and purest in the world. So while parts of Italy have certainly been oversold, this book will allow all those readers who are still curious about the country to top into a different view of it. |
