Who Knew La Dolce Vita Was So Funny? When Michael Francis joins an Italian for Beginners class he expects to learn a few simple phrases, but what he gets is a one-way ticket to the chaotic splendor of Italy. Armed with unwavering optimism, and a gift for using verbs in all the wrong tenses, he takes his basic Italian and lets it loose on an unsuspecting country. From standoffs with ill-tempered street vendors, to white-knuckle bus rides on narrow mountain highways, every awkward and embarrassing moment is lost in translation. You'll cringe, cheer and laugh out loud at every hilarious misadventure - including the romance that nobody, not even Michael, saw coming. Get your copy of Only in Italy now - and discover the country no guidebook ever warned you about. Michael Francis is an Australian born author who lives in Brooklyn, New York.He has written two books - Positively Pazzo: Learning Italian and Travels in Italy and Yards and Stripes: A Funny Book About Work, Business and Gardening.He hopes to return to Italy several times and write a series of books.
