Under the Tuscan Sun

Under the Tuscan Sun

by Frances Mayes

  • TRAVEL NARRATIVE
  • 1997
  • PAPER
  • 288 PAGES

In this best-selling memoir of buying, renovating and living in an abandoned villa in Tuscany, Mayes reveals the sensual pleasures found in rural Italy: the lasting sunlight, rich colors, warm architecture and the languor of slow paced days. An accomplished cook as well as poet, writer and handy-woman, Mayes includes recipes and much savory talk about food and wine.  (ITL85, $15.00)
