Tim Parksin Italian Neighbours tarjoaa tarkkanäköisen ja humoristisen katsauksen italialaiseen arkeen, eroten tavanomaisista matkakirjoista. Kirja kuvaa ulkomaalaisen sopeutumista italialaiseen yhteisöön ainutlaatuisella otteella.
'This is a clever, entertaining book. And, rare, in travel literature, it is charged with a sense of purpose' SUNDAY TIMES
'I recommend his book to all those who are fed up with accounts of roughing it agreeably in Tuscany and similar junk that scarcely scratches the surface of the real Italy' Paul Bailey, DAILY TELEGRAPH
Gradually (he) comes to accept what the locals take for granted: everybody likes the Pope, racism thrives, the barber is a faith healer, the bank manager asks what interest rate you want to pay and the devoted church-going pharmacist upholds Catholicism on a Sunday but shows commercial flair the rest of the week by selling cut-price condoms... A rich treat from start to finish' SUNDAY EXPRESS
'Synthesising the experiences of a long-standing resident into a single year... Italian Neighbours is not about the escape to an idyll, but about a different way of living life's idiocies and hardships. It's a clever job Parks has pulled off (and seriously instructive)' CITY LIMITS
