About this title: From the woman who gave the world the staggeringly bestselling UNDER THE TUSCAN SUN, here is the further story of the house that inspired it. In this dazzling coffee-table book, Frances Mayes takes the reader into her Tuscan home, Bramasole, which she has been renovating over the years using local laborers and artisans. The house is, of course, a gem, and in her lyrical prose--and with the help of dozens of color photographs--Mayes makes it real for those who are fans of her books, or who are simply closet Toscanos.

"Says house and home on the library label but is a wandering travelogue with a few pictures of gardens and hardly any furniture or carvings or homes or anything of the sort. More recipes than anything else actually. I was hoping to see what italian home stuff was in the market, but oh well."
"Decorating books are really not my "thing", but this book I make an exception for. I love Frances Mayes style of writing. She adds a lot of intrest and imagery to everyday things I had not considered deeply before. Tuscan decor is also not my "thing", but I love her ideas about bringing what you love into your living spaces.
"What's not to like? The prose of Frances Mayes, Italy, beautiful old buildings, food, gorgeous pictures, etc... I always want more. Krisette and I are going to get more."
