Il Bel Centro will sweep you into an Italian village, where for bakers, pants are optional, and a good lunch will take you straight through till dinner.“A magical read.”“I absolutely couldn’t get enough of this book.”“I was instantly transported to Italy.”“This is one of the most beautiful books I’ve ever read.”“Could not put it down.”“I could smell the freshly baked bread, taste the local wine, and if I closed my eyes I could easily see the sloping hills, the pink stones of Spello, the ‘alley ladies’ with their basket of vegetables to sort and their easy chatter.” “I just want more.'
