Englishman dissects living in true Italian essence.

If you've ever dreamed about picking up your life and replanting it in the heart of Italy, 'Italian Neighbours' is your soul's looking glass. Tim Parks masterfully balances the beauty and frustration of such an endeavor. You'll laugh, nod in empathy, and perhaps find a piece of yourself longing for the cobbled streets of Verona. It's a witty, honest, and intimate cultural dissection that's as much about finding home as it is about the place itself.
