The Hilarious True Story of a Man, a Language Class, and a Country That Had Other Ideas
Buongiorno trouble.
Before he travels to Italy, Michael Francis joins an Italian for Beginners class, expecting to:
- Order an espresso
- Ask for directions
- Maybe impress a waiter or two
- Fall madly in love - though that one wasn't actually on the syllabus
What he doesn't expect are standoffs with cantankerous street vendors, and a near-disaster involving four Italian police officers, as he stumbles through a destination no guidebook prepared him for, and into a whirlwind romance that nobody saw coming.
Wonderfully entertaining, and laugh-out-loud funny, Only in Italy is the perfect read for anyone who ever decided to dive in headfirst, only to realize that chaos, confusion and unexpected detours are the whole point.
Fans of Bill Bryson, A Year in Provence, and Under the Tuscan Sun will feel right at home.
