I AM GOING TO ITALY

A siren summons will not chart your course, along with what you will wear and spend, but conveys all the enticements and excitements this country has to offer, along with informal asides on the tempo of life and the temperament of the people in contrast to ours. Commodities- or their non-existence, services, food, transportation, superstitions, art, are all part of the impressions of this country- along with impromptu footnotes on anything from playshoes to elevators, precede the special attractions which the various cities, space, smaller towns and the lakes offer.
