Author: Mayes, Frances with Edward Mayes Title: Bringing Tuscany Home, Sensuous Style from the Heart of Italy
Description: New York, Broadway Books, 2004. First Edition. Hardcover. Quarto; pp; xii, 226, (ii); profusely illustrated in color photographs by Stephen Rothfeld; brown cloth lettered in gilt in a pictorial dust jacket. I always imagine each of the signoras who lived in this house—where she shelled peas, rocked the grandchild, placed a vase of the pink roses. Now I would like to take one of these women back to my house in California to show her how Bramasole traveled to America and took root, how the doors there are open to the breeze from San Pablo bay and to the distant view of Mount Tamalpais, how the table has expanded and the garden has burgeoned... Very good/very good.
