'Una narrazione autobiografica piena di saggezza che funziona come un travolgente diario di viaggio da Boston alla Sardegna e ritorno. Scritto magnificamente e acuto dal punto di vista culturale.' -Matthew Gilbert, critico televisivo, The Boston GlobeQuando una giornalista di una grande città lascia il lavoro dei suoi sogni per trasferirsi in una remota isola italiana per amore, scopre una vita completamente nuova al di là dellle fantasticherie romanticheggianti vagheggiate nei libri e nei film.. Nel faticoso tentativo di adattarsi a una cultura diversa dalla propria, acquista una casa pittoresca nella campagna sarda, frequenta una scuola di arte e finisce per essere ossessionata da migliorie e ristrutturazioni di case. Alla fine la sua avventura di espatriata le apre la possibilità inaspettata di fare e abbracciare l’arte nella vita come in casa, facendole capire che casa è dove c’è 'arte'.
