Title: Bit of Disappointment
Product review: Am about halfway through the book and struggling to finish it. I'm not sure what I don't like about it, but I get the sense that Ms. Mayes is a little condescending toward her Italian hosts, the citizens of Cortona.I'm not sure what I expected from this book, but it certainly wasn't so much about the remodelling of her 2nd home. You win some you lose some. I also bought Romer's book, so maybe that will be more what I want: food and wine and authentic living...not just some bourgeois lady who bemoans the troubles of Martha Stewart.
