Description:
Rome is a great place to visit -- but you'd really love to live there. That's what Alan Epstein thinks. Long in love with the Eternal City, he has been revelling in life as a resident since 1995. In As the Romans Do, he reveals the city and its people in all their depth and contradictions: their gregarious caffe culture, inborn artistic flair, passionate appreciation of good food, instinctive mistrust of technology, showy sex appeal, ingrained charm, and much more. He unveils a place alive with pleasure and paradox, a place both pagan and Christian, Western and Middle Eastern. Rome is where one can relax, reflect, revel, and rebel -- all between the morning's cappuccino and the evening's grappa.
