Product Information
A small stone house deep among the olive groves of Liguria, going for the price of a dodgy second-hand car. Annie Hawes and her sister, on the spot by chance, have no plans whatsoever to move to the Italian Riviera but find naturally that it's an offer they can't refuse. The laugh is on the Foreign Females who discover that here amongst the hardcore olive farming folk their incompetence is positively alarming. Not to worry- the thrifty villagers of Diano San Pietro are on the case, and soon plying the Pallid Sisters with advice, ridicule, tall tales and copious hillside refreshments ...Product Identifiers

Interesting title and beautiful picture of a Ligurian country house and garden.
I have read the book many years ago, but decided to buy and read it again. Very good value for money, interesting story about two English sisters settling in the Ligurian (Italy) country side. Entertaining story and full of humour. Real life experience.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
