Product Description
From the sensuous sound of water lapping against the walls of Venice’s ancient palazzi to the intoxicating fragrance of citrus blossoms in Sicily, Italy is a country made for lovers. In 10 distinct chapters, Monica Larner-who has divided her life between Italy and America since childhood-guides the reader through Italy’s most inspiring destinations, including romantic locales, exclusive hotels, and tantalizing restaurants. Each region has its own unique amorous legends, love rituals, and aphrodisiac recipes that inspire and seduce. Beautifully illustrated with dozens of luscious color photographs that evoke the magic and fantasy of a romantic trip far away, the book includes complete information on getting married abroad, and will prove an invaluable and enjoyable resource to any true romantic.
This is a beautiful book, both in terms of words and images. Very special. Perfect for those who love Italy, someone going on a trip there soon, or dreaming of a future viaggio. The sort of book you buy for yourself and then want to give to each of your friends. The pictures are lovely and look particularly nice on the non-glossy paper. The paper feels good on your fingertips, as you turn the page. A book Italians would love.
“In LOve in Italy” is a very doable book. Easy to read and pleasent to look at, good information. I have given it as a gift.
