Reviews
On Sep 18 2022, The Old Library Bookshop said:
There are only so many quirky characters to which one town is entitled. The population of Sutri, in central Italy, however, seems to have exceeded that limit. The author, his artist wife, and their baby daughter have opted to make their home in the Etruscan village a bit north of Rome, where the author spends his days observing and recording the unusual ticks of his eccentric new neighbors. Fortunately, the book is small because, while the anecdotes are humorous, they begin to become tiresome as they pile up.
