Every Day in Tuscany: Seasons of an Italian Life
by Frances Mayes
by Frances Mayes
Oh. My. God.
Will something PLEASE HAPPEN in this story before I gnaw off my HEAD??????
How completely precious can we get?
Especially with no acknowledgement whatsoever as to the extreme privilege of this lifestyle and the fact that Mayes never, really, hurt for money, since like, forever?
If she translates one more Latin cognate phrase into English for the two 8-year-olds for whom the level of literary challenge this book has been gauged, I will SCREAM.

She spent so much time talking about how much everything cost as if she weren't living in a huge house in Tuscany selling her own olive oil and millions of books.
