Frances Mayes--widely published poet, gourmet cook, and travel writer--opens the door to a wondrous new world when she buys and restores an abandoned villa in the spectacular Tuscan countryside. In sensuous and evocative language, she brings the reader along as she discovers the beauty and simplicity of life in Italy. An accomplished cook and food writer, Mayes also creates dozens of delicious seasonal recipes from her traditional kitchen and simple garden, all of which are included in this audio. Doing for Tuscany what M.F.K. Fisher and Peter Mayle did for Provence, Mayes writes about the tastes and pleasures of a foreign country with gusto and passion. A celebration of the extraordinary quality of life in Tuscany, Under the Tuscan Sun is a feast for all senses.

Läste boken efter jag sett filmen, de är inte alls lika varann. Boken är mer en självbiografi och man får komma djupare in i livet i Toscana.

Ett amerikanskt par köper ett gammalt hus i Toscana och låter renovera det, för att tillbringa semestrarna där. Beskrivet rakt upp och ner, med kärlek. Matlagning (med recept), utflykter i omgivningarna, blommorna i trädgården, hantverkare...En fin bok; jag ska läsa fler.
