The Lady In The Palazzo by Marlena De Blasi

When Marlena moves with her husband to the small town of Orvieto to renovate a dilapidated medieval palazzo, she knows that the fastest way into the hearts and homes of her new neighbours is through their stomachs. In her third memoir about life in Italy, Marlena de Blasi returns with all of the sumptuous prose and delectable descriptions of the place she calls home, the food that she prepares, and best of all, the people she meets.
De Blasi is more than a sunny regional food writer - she digs into the meaning of life * PUBLISHERS WEEKLY *
De Blasi is a skilled, quirky writer; her prose is by turns reserved, rococo, earthy and, above all, fresh * KIRKUS REVIEWS *
Marlena de Blasi is the author of two other bestselling memoirs for Virago. She lives in Orvieto in Umbria, Italy.
