1.0 out of 5 stars Cultural discombobulation, May 1, 2008
This book makes no sense and jumps around from everywhere. If you do not have any background knowledge on cultural contemporary Italy this book will just be a confusing blur. I personally have, had to read this book for my class and understand the underlying meanings it has portrayed. The use of language and lack of translated words makes this book even more confusing. I could understand if you have a good background in this type of literature it would be a good read. This book just jumps around a bit too much one paragraph they are talking about Naples and then the next chapter, it talks about rivers and how Italy varies from North to South.
