      "Gets right under Italy's skin. Few books about living in foreign climes are written as entertainingly, beautifully or romantically." -- Sydney Morning Herald WINNER OF THE GROLLO RUZZENE FOUNDATION PRIZE When Chris travelled from Sydney to Dublin, he never dreamed his life was about to change forever. There he meets Daniela - one L, smile as you say it to pronounce it correctly - and it's amore at first sight. Before he can say si, he's uprooted to follow her to her sun-kissed hometown of Andrano, Puglia, tucked in the heel of southern Italy. The whitewashed houses, olive groves and cobblestone lanes are beautiful, but soon Chris is getting to grips with everyday Italian life. There's infuriating bureaucracy, an anarchic road system and - biggest challenge of all - Daniela's mamma, who's determined to convert him to the Catholic faith and build an extension on her house where the couple might live la dolce vita.

Chris Harrison, Australijczyk, przypadkowo spotyka w Irlandii piękną Włoszkę Danielę. Natychmiast wybucha między nimi gorące uczucie, które zmienia życie chłopaka o 180 stopni. Romeo wyrusza za ukochaną, by osiąść w jej rodzinnych stronach, na „obcasie włoskiego buta”. Południe Włoch okazuje się dla bohatera nie lada wyzwaniem. Pełne jest szalonych lokalnych zwyczajów i przepojone niepowtarzalną, często niepojętą dla „mentalnością Południowca”. Musi się zmierzyć z kalejdoskopem ekscentryków i niespodziewanych zdarzeń, a przede wszystkim stawić czoła mammie Danieli, która próbuje zrobić z niego Włocha pełną gębą. Czy taki egzamin to nie zbyt wiele dla rozkwitającej na skrzyżowaniu kultur miłości? Chris Harrison jest podróżnikiem, dziennikarzem i nauczycielem języka angielskiego. Urodził się w Sydney, obecnie mieszka w Londynie i we Włoszech, ma żonę i córkę.
