This review is from: Hanging Out in Italy (Paperback)
This book is great. I went to Italy a lame American devil and came back a lame American devil, but what a great book anyway.
All the locations for hip convents are detailed, and mapped out. The Italian culture is described in intimate detail, by some of the finest wordsmiths since Dante. The restaurant reviews are so well written you almost see the stains from the extra virgin olive oil. There is section that descibes Italian fashion. The tip on the large lapels was most helpful for my nights on the town. Common Italian slang that peppers the pages makes this an educational as well enjoyable read. "molla benny"
I love this book, no matter where I travel, even in the USA I read it for area recommendations.
Good book.
