A review by tufriel
Four Seasons in Rome: On Twins, Insomnia, and the Biggest Funeral in the History of the World by Anthony Doerr

3.0

As much as the writer tried to explore Rome, assimilate into the Roman way of life and live in the moment (heading for St Peter’s Basilica when a new pope was elected), it felt like he didn’t really want to go to Rome and couldn’t wait to go home once he arrived. And that longing leached into his writing and marred the experience.
