Fernando first sees Marlena across the Piazza San Marco and
falls in love from afar. When he sees her again in a Venice cafe a
year later, he knows it is fate. He knows little English; she, a
divorced American chef traveling through Italy, speaks only
food-based Italian. Marlena thought she was done with romantic
love, incapable of intimacy. Yet within months of their first
meeting, she has quit her job, sold her house in St. Louis, kissed
her two grown sons good-bye, and moved to Venice to marry the
stranger, as she calls Fernando. This deliciously satisfying memoir
is filled with the foods and flavors of Italy and peppered with
culinary observations and recipes. But the main course here is an
enchanting true story about a woman who falls in love with both a
man and a city, and finally finds the home she didn t even know she
was missing."
