In these 50 delightfully memorable pieces--published here for the first time--expatriates David Leavitt and Mark Mitchell conjure up the delights and delicacies of Italy, where they now live. Alternating short essays of engaging prose, the authors vividly render the joys and surprises of their adopted homeland, from iced cappuccino, umbrella pines, and nuances of the language to trompe l'oeil, window shopping, and the names and shapes of pasta.
