Mother Tongue : An American Life in Italy

Rating:
Summary: engaging
Review: This is the story of a life, written with poetry of the soul

Rating:
Summary: disconnected and a chore to read.
Review: Was this book about Italy? I couldn't tell. After forcing myself to read the first half, I finally disposed of it. The author gives little, if any insight to what it is like living in Italy, and seems more interested in showing off her prose.
