If They are Roses: The Italian Way with Words

If They are Roses: The Italian Way with Words

Unravel Italy s idiosyncrasies and experience its essence in a book that topples communication barriers and provides an idiom-inspired road map to life in the Bel Paese. Drawn from her column in The Florentine, Linda Falcone s If They Are Roses is the sequel to the best-selling Italians Dance and I m a Wallflower. It clues into a country in which affection is abundant, jobs are scarce, art is more available than oxygen and soccer and style are one in the same. It explores a language worth deciphering: being a doctor has nothing to do with medicine, My mother! is a substitute for My God! and al dente pasta proves a moral dilemma. Discover the heart of everyday Italy, where conversation is as rich and energizing as coffee and wit is the daily bread of the common man.
