It intertwines personal experiences with literary references from Dante to Calvino, creating a rich tapestry of cultural and historical insights. Each essay, anchored in specific Italian locales, transcends mere travelogue to examine themes of home and belonging, revealing how journeys can evoke a sense of placelessness while reinforcing our inherent selves.
