Frances Mayes is a Georgian who now lives in Cortona, Italy, and San Francisco, California. She has written five books of poetry and is chair of the creative writing department at San Francisco State University.
Buying a villa in the spectacular Italian countryside is a wonderful fantasy -- even if 17 rooms and a garden in need of immediate loving care are included in the asking price. Frances Mayes -- gourmet cook, widely published travel writer, and poet -- changed her life by doing just that. Sprinkled liberally with delicious recipes for inspired Italian dishes, amusing anecdotes about the risks of being your own contractor, and a savvy traveler's reminiscences, Under the Tuscan Sun is Mayes's enchanting account of her love affair with Tuscany: of scouring the neighborhood for the perfect panettone and the perfect plumber; of mornings spent cultivating her garden, and afternoons spent enjoying its fruits in leisurely lunches on the terrace; of jaunts through the hill towns in search of renowned wines; and the renewal not only of a house, but also of the spirit. An unusual memoir that combines the appeal of M. F.K. Fisher, Peter Mayle, and Martha Stewart, Under the Tuscan Sun is a feast for the senses.

评分我是一个双鱼座,双鱼座的人无可救药,双鱼座看到蔚蓝的海水就情不自禁的想跳进去淹死;遇到浓雾就会想起小时候看到的怪谈故事:一支军队走进一片神秘浓雾,等阳光再出来的时候,军队就随着大雾一起消失了……双鱼座的人是否都是这样?还是只有我是这样? 《托斯卡纳艳阳下》是...
评分10几年前的一个深夜,我不知道是因为什么心事,辗转反侧,最终我一个人跑到客厅打开电视,CCTV8海外剧场正在放一部电影《托斯卡纳艳阳下》,转了一圈别的台实在没别的电视好看,只好看这个了。结果却深深被这部电影打动。它浅浅的,悄无声息,没有波澜壮阔的剧情和画面,但就是...
