| | Tantor Audio Books : The Lady in the Palazzo (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-27) |
 | | By turns romantic and sensual, joyous and celebratory, touching and humorous, Marlena de Blasi's account of moving with her husband, Fernando, to Orvieto, the largest city in Italy's Umbria, will appeal to anyone who delights in travel and shares the fantasy of beginning a new life in a very different place. |
 | | It is a tale of the couple's search for the right home-which turns out to be the former ballroom of a fifteenth=-century palazzo-and the right balance in their lives, in this case making friends of cooks, counts, shepherds, and a lone violinist. |
 | | It is a tale, too, of an American woman finding her niche in a society bound by tradition and seemingly closed to outsiders. |
