ajreader 's review for:
Under the Tuscan Sun: 20th-Anniversary Edition
by Frances Mayes
Read my full thoughts on this book and hundreds more over at Read.Write.Repeat.
Mayes' history as a poet shines through in her writing. Her prose is beautiful and wonderfully descriptive without being too sappy. It gets a little rambling at times, but in the way I imagine Italian dinners do. The languid journey is about just that - the journey, not the destination. No matter when I picked it up, I felt immediately transported to the Tuscan fields and hills. Mayes made my mouth water and my wunderlist ache.
