Book Reviews of La Bella Figura: A Field Guide to the Italian Mind
Book Review: A Poor Book
Summary: 1 Stars
I wish I had read more reviews before purchasing this truly dreadful book. I can only assume that the various newspaper critics that are quoted on the back cover were personal friends. He states correctly in his appalling offering that it appears to have become a pass time of uninspired anglo saxon authors to write about Italy. He should have known better than adding to the marass of garbage himself. I would recommend Matt FreiItaly - the Unfinished Revolution, Tobias JonesThe Dark Side of Italy. Travels Through Time and Space Across Italy or for entertainment Bill Bryson Neither Here nor There: Travels in Europe or Tim Moore's Continental Drifter.
