Under The Tuscan Sun : Anniversary Edition Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Discover the New York Times bestseller that inspired the film.

The perfect read for anyone seeking an escape to the Italian countryside. When Frances Mayes – poet, gourmet cook and travel writer – buys an abandoned villa in Tuscany, she has no idea of the scale of the project she is embarking on. In this enchanting memoir she takes the reader on a journey to restore a crumbling villa and build a new life in the Italian countryside, navigating hilarious cultural misunderstandings, legal frustrations and the challenges of renovating a house that seems determined to remain a ruin.

Filled with evocative landscapes, delicious recipes and colourful characters, Under the Tuscan Sun is a book to savour.

It’s a love letter to Tuscany, good food, and the joys of starting over. "What makes it special is the sustained note of joy in it; joy in the beauty of the Tuscan countryside, the sights and sounds of daily life, the physical labour involved in the restoration of this 200-year-old villa and the five acres of land that go with it" SUNDAY TIMES
