Post with your favorite books by Italian authors (including by expats living in Italy).
True Vines by Diana Strinati Baur. "After the sudden death of her Italian winemaker husband, Meryl Michelli flees to her small hometown in Pennsylvania, looking to slam the door on heartache and trudge forward." Set in both Italy and the US and written by a US expat living in northern Italy. A little chick-lit, a little feel-good, with nice details about life in Italy.
The Virgin and The Griffin by Sandra Cordon. "In 1504 Perugia, an ancient Umbrian city in central Italy, is a place of great art, great violence – and a great many secrets. Isabella Bevilacqua, a young weaver in her family's small workshop, understands this very well." Good historic novel with lovely details about Perugia and life at that time. Written by a Canadian expat living in Rome.
