From the book
'Even first-time visitors, with eyes and brains spinning, soon become uneasily aware that, for every Italian cliché, every Mount Vesuvius, St Mark's Basilica and Leonardo's Last Supper, Italy has a hundred other natural wonders and artistic showpieces that any other nation would die for. Someone once tried to count up all the works of art, and concluded that there was at least one per inhabitant, no less'

"sophisticated, beautifully written "
