Product Information

On the other hand, Venice somehow has been able to defend itself from the general invasion, so that you can still find corners of it which are movingly beautiful and fairly deserted, especially in the fall, when tourists retire and the city becomes suddenly silent, and at night, almost bare.

D. Salinger, through prescient warnings about the threat posed to the English skyline by office blocks,.Mercato Sant’Ambrogio and surrounds: The Sant’Ambrogio market is my favourite produce market in the city for its down to earth vibe and local offerings, which I’ve mentioned before. I grew up in Venice (we moved there from NYC, quite a cultural shock) and it was the best place for a child to live.

Taken together they offer a eulogy for what was lost and an impassioned defence of the past in the face of progress.Hate is probably a bit too strong, let’s just say that living in a city like Florence has its moments – intolerable ones and magical ones. I can’t tell you the times when tourists would yell at us, claiming we shouldn’t ride our bike in this ancient part of town, I would kindly remind them we had to live there and get around … The evenings, however the view over the renaissance church, beautifully lit and the views over the cathedral even prettier, I couldn’t sleep through the noise of people having fun in the bars on the square, students singing, and sirens running. As the articles date from the 1950s and 1960s they give an interesting perspective on the times they were written, as well as insight into the author himself.
