Great stories with a touch of humour. If you like Italy this will remind you of the country, the food and the people. Very good value.

Bought to help us struggle through the Italian version. The translation is very reasonable. It would have helped if it was more literal but perhaps the English version would not flow as well.

If you like the tv series then I can recommend the books.

I bought this book because I have watched every episode of Inspector Montalbano recently shown on BBC4 and loved every one. I wanted to read the books and this is the only episode I had difficulty following on the TV series. I have bought several books in the series and I am currently reading this one. I love these books. They are so evocative of Sicily and the humour is so typical of the region and Italy as a whole. Maybe because I lived in Rome for ten years and speak Italian I find these books so fascinating, but would recommend them to anyone who loves the country, the language, the dialect and the humour. This particular volume is probably a little more difficult to follow than others in the series, but a jolly good read anyway.
Great humour with mysterious whodunnits
