One-of-a-kind timeless lessons for handling challenges and living with joy, the Italian way—“with unparalleled insight and brilliant wit, Severgnini’s book not only transports us to Italy but deep into the Italian mind and spirit" (Stanley Tucci, host of Searching for Italy).
Is there an Italian way to deal with life? Can we all learn something from the Italians?
Italy often arouses in Americans a unique mix of attraction and bafflement, moderate disapproval and incredible allure. From the Italians' love of poetry to an innate desire to socialize to the regional differences between the north and the south, Beppe Severgnini, who has dedicated his career to the meticulous observation of his compatriots, embarks on an enthralling quest to identify a core Italian identity and explore how that identity has evolved since the global pandemic.
Told with the warmth and humor of a longtime friend, Severgnini touches upon patience, endurance, and wisdom, and offers a one-of-a-kind set of timeless lessons for overcoming trials, the Italian way.

Good Introduction to a different way of life
Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on 8 December 2022Verified Purchase
This is a fun little book on one Italian’s mindset but I gotta say, the format felt more like a daily calendar quote and I found myself wanting more texture and detail to the Italian experience. So it’s a 5/5 if you just want a quick blurb here and there or a quick read, but a 4/5 if you’re looking for a deeper dive.

Not just a good laugh (although there are many !)
Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on 15 June 2022Verified Purchase
This book clearly shows the successful "Italian Approach" to the Covid pandemic, but also mixes serious thoughts about the world with Severgnini's subtile humor. A Great Read.
