An Italian Journey, Hardback Book

An Italian Journey Hardback

Hardback

Description

In An Italian Journey, Jean Giono describes his journey to the land of his father's people.

A reluctant traveler (he rarely left Provence), Giono discovers a strange beauty not only in the palazzi and canals of Venice but also in wistful waiters, suspicious hairdressers, pugnacious men of God, recalcitrant coffeemakers, umbrellas, and field machinery.

In Giono's world a stamp collectors' market can appear to verge on revolution and inept municipal musicians suddenly offer Mozartian joys.
