Frommer's Italy 2025
Frommer's books aren't written by committee, by A.I., or by travel writers who simply pop in briefly to a destination and then consider the job done. We use seasoned, locally-based journalists like Elizabeth Heath, Donald Strachan, and Michelle Schoenung, plus long-time Italy experts Stephen Brewer and Stephen Keeling to research our guides. They've checked out all of Italy's best hotels, attractions, shops, wineries, and restaurants in person, and offer authoritative, candid reviews that will help you find the venues that suit your tastes and budget, whether you're a backpacker or on a romantic honeymoon.Most importantly, none of these journalists are shy about telling you what you should see...and what you can skip without regret.With helpful advice and honest recommendations from Frommer's expert authors, you'll walk among the ancient ruins of Pompeii, float along the canals of Venice, appreciate Renaissance masterworks in Florence, explore off-the-beaten-path Puglia and live la dolce vita in Rome―as well as discover timeless wonders such as the vineyards of Tuscany and cliff-top towns perched along the Amalfi Coast and the Cinque Terre.Inside the guide: Full-color photos and helpful maps throughout, including a detachable foldout map6 Detailed itineraries for planning your trip to suit your schedule and interests (and help you avoid lines and crowds)Compelling cultural information so that you'll better understand the history, cuisine, and traditions of ItalyCandid reviews of the best restaurants, historic sights, museums, tours, shops, and experiences―and no-punches-pulled info on the ones not worth your time and money.

Capri, The Earth and the Sea
Preface to the first edition It is a pleasure to write this presentation of the book by Elena Scarfagna Rossi, not only because I like her poems, but also because they take me back to the island of my soul, the territory of my body, that can be defined as the alter ego that all of us look for and find in a place where one would like to be born and to die too.This is why many years ago I chose Capri, not to go on vacation but to pursue the "vacatio" from other lands which is the most noble and difficult of all kinds of elopements.At the beginning it was a way of escaping from Rome and from my work as a journalist, then I could escape from New York and from my job as a writer and a cultural event organizer, it was a way of honouring Capri by organising an event that would bring some of the most important writers of our time to the island.Thanks to the Capri Award, which I founded, poets like Czelaw Milosz, the Nobel laureate who has been defined by Joseph Brodsky as the greatest poet of the twentieth century, landed at Marina Grande as well as Brodsky, Derek Walcott (another Nobel prize winner), Rafael Alberti, Lawrence Ferlinghetti, Tahar Ben Jelloun, Thomas Venclova, Attilio Bertolucci, Irving Layton, Bohumil Hrabal, the U.S. Congress laureate poet Robert Pinsky, the Pulizer Prize-winning poet Rita Dove and Eugenij Evtishenko.Novelists and intellectuals have also been awarded such as Adolfo Bioy Casares, Roger Peyrefitte, Hector Bianciotti, Banana Yoshimoto, Ralph Dahrendorf, Francis Fukuyama.Promoting Capri as a symbol of culture and beauty is one of the aims of this event as well as to consecrate it as the ambassador of a poetic message to be conveyed all over the world.This is also the author's goal that she set for herself, and I also appreciate this opera for its complete dedication to the charm of the island that emerges from its lyrics and the pictures, as beautiful as the poems to which they give a visual touch turning them into small imaginary islands in an archipelago revolving around enchantment. Capri seems to be part of another time and of another planetary system.Whoever understand this encounters a mystery by which he or she is subjugated. Elena Scarfagna Rossi perceives it when she claims she stopped asking the reasons behind things. There is another reason that conquers her and it is the reason of poetry, with "The shadow of the seagulls over / the white rock / like a ghost ... ".The poems in this collection, like all beautiful poems, have a beginning but do not seem to have an epilogue, because they continue to rotate around dreams and beauty. `So the only possible epilogue is the one by Daisy Utemorrah: "That land is what we are! We are that territory! Without that territory we are nobody, we are nothing. And it cannot be any land, you know? It must be that land." Claudio Angelini

A Pilgrim's Guide to the Camino Ingl矇s
Camino Ingl矇s: This ancient route was popular with pilgrims arriving by sea from England, Ireland and Northern Europe in the medieval period. It all but faded from memory but is quietly coming back to life and now ready to welcome pilgrims seeking a more solitary way along the rugged r穩as of Northern Galicia. It was previously combined with the route to Finisterre which was described as the road less travelled but that acclaim has now passed to the English way (or Celtic way) that starts in Ferrol or A Coru簽a and now fully merits its own edition. Few pilgrims walking the Camino Ingl矇s commence in A Coru簽a which, at less than 100 km, does not entitle the pilgrim to a compostela unless they have walked an extra 25 km in their own country or combine it with the route from Ferrol. This provides an opportunity to visit the only site in Galicia directly linked with the life of Jesus - his first miracle in Cana of Galilee. By combining two distinct starting points we also come to understand the variety of pathways that the caminos de Santiago offer us, inviting further exploration. This guidebook also seeks to find a balance between the outer and inner journey, between the practical and spiritual, which is why it is subtitled A Practical & Mystical Manual - that we might find a place to eat and sleep at the end of a hard day's walk but also, and crucially, that we might find the courage to dive into the mystery of our own soul awakening.

Gather the Olives
"'Gather the Olives' is an achingly lovely essay collection that celebrates the multiculturalism of Israel and Palestine, lifting up those whose generosity and kindness lights the way to lasting peace." --FOREWORD REVIEWSGather the Olives is a dangerous book. That's because it is about peace in a time when peace in the Holy Land is a faraway, even radical notion. It is about hope and food and community and the way there can be solidarity in sharing a meal. Hence the danger: this book might remind its brave readers of how peace is nourished and how hope can't be extinguished.Over the years, Bret Lott-the bestselling author of more than a dozen books, including the novel Jewel (an Oprah's Book Club selection)-has lived and taught in Jerusalem, affording him the opportunity to travel throughout Israel and the surrounding area. Now, in Gather the Olives, this gifted storyteller has brought together a collection of intimate portraits of the people, the food, and the hope for peace to be found in a region ravaged by war and conflict.Through meditations on such varied matters as an olive oil cooperative run by Israeli and Palestinian women, a non-kosher butcher shop in the middle of upscale-and very kosher-German Colony, the nighttime harvesting of olives by Bedouins in downtown Jerusalem, a traditional Shabbat dinner at an ancient home within the walls of the Old City, a simple yet beautiful plate of fruit in an office in Ramallah, Bret Lott considers how food and the people with whom we share it can bring together hearts and souls in a lasting, meaningful, and peaceful way.
