Product Description
This is a sensitive yet eclectic mix of stories, essays and poems inspired by Rome and written in Rome by 40 writers on Retreat. Stories deal in great measure with the stuff of Rome: ancient artifacts and their ghosts, the romance that permeates the air, the exquisite food, the Church, the memories of loved ones passed, the stuff of being a writer in such a sensously rich locale. Stories were inspired by the gypsies, nuns, catacombs, pickpockets, the ubiquitous dogs and feral cats, tourists, the open-air markets, the gathering places, the way the ancient ruins coexist side by side with modern architecture. Rome is a place for the imagination to run free. T
