Wealthy Americans in fairly cultured Tuscany; what's not to like? Well, quite a bit really. I couldn't warm to the author who uses pretension disguised as narrative, but in fairness pretty readable for all that. Her life moves from idyllic moment to idyllic moment with all problems solved by wonderful people all along the way. Oh please! However as a summer read it's not all bad and an easy way to chill and marvel at another person's smooth path through life, untroubled by most normal people's trials and traumas.

Having seen the film I decided to purchase the book as I love the scenario of house renovation, sunshine, wine and foreign places...this book throws it all, a nice relaxing read, which takes you to the place in bags, also has a few reciped thrown in for good measure, recommend it
