Today's book recommendation is from a fellow Italy-lover. I love her blog, Why Go Italy . Add it to your regular reading!
Recommended by: Italylogue who says, "It's not mine, but it's a friend's book, and it just came out." The author, Karen Landes, tells me, "I haven't done twitter yet, but it looks like I might have to start! Maybe after the holidays. ;)" We say, join us, Karen!

Evocative, full-color photographs transport you from the slopes of Europe's tallest volcano, Mount Etna, to the fertile la Piana di Catania(Plain of Catania) below. The author takes you along on culinary adventures detailing everything from gelsi to gelato and carciofi to cassata while also presenting practical information on market days and sagre listings within the Province of Catania. -- excerpted from Amazon.com
