Frances Mayes entered a wondrous new world when she began restoring an abandoned villa in the spectacular Tuscan countryside. There were unexpected treasures at every turn: faded frescos beneath the whitewash in her dining room, a vineyard under wildly overgrown brambles in the garden, and, in the nearby hill towns, vibrant markets and delightful people. In Under the Tuscan Sun, she brings the lyrical voice of a poet, the eye of a seasoned traveler, and the discerning palate of a cook and food writer to invite readers to explore the pleasures of Italian life and to feast at her table.]]> 2003 4 1 false Wed Oct 07 08:57:59 -0700 2009 Wed Oct 07 08:58:28 -0700 2009 more...]]> 67002422 1972680 480479 0767900383 9780767900386 791 http://www.goodreads.com/images/books/48/479/480479-m-1255613835.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/images/books/48/479/480479-s-1255613835.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/480479.Under_the_Tuscan_Sun 3.49 32705 2003 4 1 false Sat Aug 01 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Tue Aug 11 16:34:56 -0700 2009 Tue Aug 11 16:59:54 -0700 2009 more...]]> 56693107 122617 480479 0767900383 9780767900386 791 http://www.goodreads.com/images/books/48/479/480479-m-1255613835.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/images/books/48/479/480479-s-1255613835.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/480479.Under_the_Tuscan_Sun 3.49 32705 2003 5 0 false Thu May 01 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Tue May 19 19:58:26 -0700 2009 Tue May 19 19:59:09 -0700 2009 more...]]> 16530591 944805 480479 0767900383 9780767900386 791 http://www.goodreads.com/images/books/48/479/480479-m-1255613835.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/images/books/48/479/480479-s-1255613835.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/480479.Under_the_Tuscan_Sun 3.49 32705 2003 3 1 false Thu Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 2004 Wed Feb 27 12:21:10 -0800 2008 Wed Feb 27 12:23:46 -0800 2008 more...]]> 39570882 313037 480479 0767900383 9780767900386 791 http://www.goodreads.com/images/books/48/479/480479-m-1255613835.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/images/books/48/479/480479-s-1255613835.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/480479.Under_the_Tuscan_Sun 3.49 32705 2003 4 0 false Sun Dec 07 21:59:07 -0800 2008 Sun Dec 07 22:09:25 -0800 2008
