In 1967, veteran travel writer Eric Newby and his heroic wife, Wanda, fulfilled their dream of a return to life in the Italian hills where they first met during World War II. But this fulfillment would not come easy. The dream materialised in the form of I Castagni ('The Chestnuts'), a small, decrepit farmhouse with no roof, an abandoned septic tank and its own indigenous wildlife reluctant to give up their home.

Но провести в Риме всего день и что-то понять невозможно — все равно, что выучить за день весь курс высшей математики. Не обольщайтесь и не будете разочарованы.
