Italia. Mark's love affair with all things Italian began as a child, when his family lived along the Tyrrhenian Sea near Florence. As an adult, he has spent over thirty years traveling across Italy's remarkable landscape. Tuscan Echoes chronicles one memorable season during which the author revisits some of the sights and sounds that have haunted his dreams for years. Set amid the glorious surroundings of Florence, Tuscany, Umbria, Assisi, and Venice, the author's journey takes readers to quiet, out-of-the-way corners where moments of the mysterious and the sublime spring to life: ghosts appear in villas; fireflies illuminate a Florentine garden; a haunted gondola rests, landlocked, in Venice; marionettes dance in Assisi. Tuscan Echoes is a uniquely personal portrait of a timeless place, a beloved land, and generous, gregarious, people. Sensual, passionate, mystical and full of surprisingly intimate moments, this luminous debut work is a journey you must not miss.
