Nobody Mentioned the Chaos
Michael Francis joins an Italian for Beginners class, then packs his basic language skills and travels to Italy.
He expects to order an espresso, ask for directions, and maybe impress a waiter or two.
What he gets are standoffs with cantankerous street vendors, a near-disaster involving five Italian police officers, and a whirlwind romance that blindsides him completely.
Only in Italy ? the hilarious true story of what happens when classroom translations collide with La Dolce Vita ? something no guidebook will ever warn you about.
Fans of Bill Bryson, A Year in Provence, and Under the Tuscan Sun will feel right at home in these pages ? equal parts laugh-out-loud misadventure and unexpected charm.
If you're traveling to Italy, learning Italian, or just enjoy a good laugh from the comfort of your armchair, this book is for you.
