See You in the Piazza: New Places to Discover in Italy Audiobook (Free)

Bestselling and beloved author Frances Mayes discovers the hidden pleasures of Italy within a sumptuous travel narrative that crisscrosses the united states, with inventive fresh formulas celebrating Italian cuisine

The Roman Forum, the Leaning Tower, the Piazza San Marco: these are the sights synonymous with Italy. But such landmarks just scratch the surface of this marvelous country’s offerings. In Discover You in the Piazza, Frances Mayes introduces us towards the Italy only the locals know, as she and her husband, Ed, drink and eat their way through thirteen regions–from Friuli to Sicily. Along the way, she looks for out the ethnic and historical gems not found in traditional guidebooks.

Frances conjures the enchantment of the backstreets, the hubbub of the marketplaces, the dreamlike question of this space between lunch and dinner when a town cracks available to those that would wander or whenever a brain is drawn into the pages of a delicious book–and discloses to us the secrets that only someone who is on personal terms with a place could find.
