Language and Silence by George Steiner
The Villa was charming, but life in post-war Italy was anything but serene Where else would it make perfect sense to park the car inside the house? Sallie's Italian lessons hadn't prepared her for the need to say I have a gun and I'll shoot But she coped, adapted, observed it all with wry humor, and wrote this memoir of the ups and downs of life in the House of the Four Winds.
