i totally enjoyed this book. i love listening to books as i do other things, and this was perfect for that. it is so much fun to hear about other people who have had the adventure of going abroad and actually buying a place and fixing it up to live there. it's interesting and humorous and true. i also really liked the narrator's voice. this is 6 hours on 4 cassettes and is abridged.

I came across this audiobook quite by accident (on Paperbackswap) and thank goodness for that accident. It is a most delightful audiobook. The story is easy to love and funny. The narrator does a wonderful job telling the story.
Set in the eighties, it's a well written fun story of two sisters from England who go to Liguria, Italy and fall in love with it and buy a home. Wholesome and quite fun. The characters are likeable and believeable. It's really a wonderful audiobook with some interesting and often funny cultural insights. Pretty lighthearted and feel good.
It is not a romance story, to my great relief, as I thought it might be. Except the "romance" between the women and the land and the culture.
I truly loved it.

I absolutely loved this story. I lived in Italy during the time it was written, and that made it even more enjoyable. (I must confess that it made my treadmill time much easier too--actually looked forward to it!)

Loved this book! Allowed me to visit Liguria again where cappucino in the afternoon is only for tourists.
