Luca Paolorossi is a young fashion designer in love with fashion, an innate taste for elegance and originality. Luca operates in Filottrano, the heart of the industrial and clothing manufacturing for men according to the sartorial tradition of the family. Tradition that had a profound impact on an obsessive care of cutting, rigorous choice of materials and the creation of the dress, today this teaching worth the confidence of some of the most famous people of Italy. From Le Marche to Milan, from Cortina to New York, from France to Dubai, the Luca’s style leaves its mark without forgetting the roots, the family, a humus of hard work and passion. Abnegation shared with collaborators, the enlarged family.
In this sequel to her New York Times bestsellers Under the Tuscan Sun and Bella Tuscany, the celebrated “bard of Tuscany” (New York Times) lyrically chronicles her continuing, two-decades-long love affair with Tuscany’s people, art, cuisine, and lifestyle.
Frances Mayes offers her readers a deeply personal memoir of her present-day life in Tuscany, encompassing both the changes she has experienced since Under the Tuscan Sun and Bella Tuscany appeared, and sensuous, evocative reflections on the timeless beauty and vivid pleasures of Italian life. Among the themes Mayes explores are how her experience of Tuscany dramatically expanded when she renovated and became a part-time resident of a thirteenth-century house with a stone roof in the mountains above Cortona, how life in the mountains introduced her to a “wilder” side of Tuscany–and with it a lively engagement with Tuscany’s mountain people. Throughout, she reveals the concrete joys of life in her adopted hill town, with particular attention to life in the piazza, the art of Luca Signorelli (Renaissance painter from Cortona), and the pastoral pleasures of feasting from her garden. Moving always toward a deeper engagement, Mayes writes of Tuscan icons that have become for her storehouses of memory, of crucible moments from which bigger ideas emerged, and of the writing life she has enjoyed in the room where Under the Tuscan Sun began.
