Under the Tuscan Sun (Abridged)

20th Anniversary Edition with a New Afterword

Twenty years ago, Frances Mayesamp;mdash;widely published poet, gourmet cook, and travel writeramp;mdash;introduced readers to a wondrous new world when she bought and restored an abandoned villa called Bramasole in the spectacular Tuscan countryside. Under the Tuscan Sun inspired generations to embark on their own journeysamp;mdash;whether that be flying to a foreign country in search of themselves, savoring one of the book's dozens of delicious seasonal recipes, or simply being transported by Mayes's signature evocative, sensory language. Now, with a new afterword from the Bard of Tuscany herself, the 20th anniversary edition of Under the Tuscan Sun brings us up-to-date with the book's most beloved characters.
