Descriere magazin:
The bestselling author of Under the Tuscan Sun and Bella Tuscany brings home the abundant pleasures of Italian life in this lavishly illustrated celebration of Tuscany and its people, food, landscape, and art. Tuscany may have found its own bard in Frances Mayes.--The New York Times. 150 full-color photos & illustrations. A lavishly illustrated ode to the joys of Tuscany\'s people, food, landscapes, and art, from the bestselling author of Under the Tuscan Sun and See You in the Piazza A love letter to Italy written in precise and passionate language of near-poetic density.--Newsday In Tuscany celebrates the abundant pleasures of life in Italy as it is lived at home, at festivals, feasts, restaurants and markets, in the kitchen and on the piazza, in the vineyards, fields, and olive groves. Combining essays by Frances Mayes and a chapter by her husband, poet Edward Mayes, with more than 200 full-color photos by photographer Bob Krist, each of this book\'s five sections highlights a signature aspect of Tuscan life: La Piazza the locus of Italian village life. With photographs of the shop signs, the outdoor markets, medieval streets, people, their pets and their cars, and snippets of conversations overheard, Mayes reveals the life of the Piazza in her town of Cortona as well as out-of-the-way places such as Volterra, Asciano, Monte San Savino, and Castelmuzio. La Festa the celebration. Essays and photos of feasts and celebrations, such as the Christmas dinner for twenty-seven at a neighbor\'s house and a donkey race around the church at Montepulciano Stazione, illustrate how the Tuscans celebrate the seasons--their open ways of friendship, their connection to nature, and most of all, their sense of abundance. Il Campo the field. Here Edward Mayes evokes the deep sense of the shift of seasons as he picks olives before he and Frances head off to the olive oil mill and enjoy the first bruscette with new oil. La Cucina the kitchen. An intimate view of the all-important role of the kitchen in Tuscan culture, including photographs of her own kitchen and gardens, menus from great local cooks, the elements of the Tuscan table, dishes with cultural and culinary notes on each, and, of course, delectable recipes. La Bellezza the beauty. From the quality of the light falling on sublime landscapes in different seasons and Tuscan faces in moments of laughter t
