review 1: It was quite interesting... a little long, but definitely made me smile and burst out laughing (much to the dismay of my roommate)It was cute, and had many interesting points on the nationalism and characteristics of the country. The nuances of our countries and our differences was particularly interesting. The food! oh, the food! how important it is to the culture and the lifestyle, just simply makes me wish I knew how to speak Italian, and could visit.
review 2: I really enjoyed this book. It was fun to read about Italy from a Minnesotan's view. The author & his girlfriend spent two years over in Modena and he wrote about his travels and all that he had learned. It was very funny stuff to read about and all of the things he needed to learn. He was known a... mores a tourists but eventually people befriended him and sort of "let him off the hook" for being American. This book makes you hungry as well as you're reading it. The one thing I learned about Italians that surprised me was that they rarely at spaghetti. Now I sound like a tourist. Who knew! less
