Follow on Google News | NEW BOOK -- Calabria: The Other ItalyAN ITALY LESS TRAVELED -- A Contemporary Picture of Calabria and Southern Italy
By: Karen Haid Calabria: The Other Italy paints a compelling picture of contemporary Calabria and Southern Italy, weaving observation, personal anecdote, salient historical information and social commentary into a nonfiction narrative that combines travelogue with an exploration of everyday life and culture. At times humorous, at others poignant, this engaging work portrays the joys and challenges of the “other Italy.” Knowing the meaning of “al dente” before it was in vogue, Karen Haid inherited her love of Italy and its traditions from her parents. She went on to earn Dante Alighieri Society’s most advanced certification as well as credentials to teach the Italian language and culture from Reggio Calabria’s University for Foreigners. Calabria: The Other Italy grew out of a four-year immersion, observing, interacting and absorbing the wonders of the people and the place. She teaches, translates, writes and blogs on Italy and other topics. Visit her website and blog at http://www.calabriatheotheritaly.com. Book Information: End
