Story4 out of 5 stars 67
Filled with recipes from Mayes' Tuscan kitchen and written in the sensuous and evocative prose that has become her hallmark, Bella Tuscany is a celebration of the sweet life in Italy. Mayes writes of her continuing love affair with Italy: her deepening connection to the land, her flourishing friendships with local people, the joys of art, food, and wine, and the rewards and occasional heartbreaks of her villa's ongoing restoration.

She is an author, not a narrator...

I like her books, I love the images of Tuscan (and greater Italian) life. But the narration is awful... I couldn't make it past the first chapter.
I'll stick to the paperback for this one.
