Description

A Florence Diary by Diana Athill is a playful and engaging diary of a two-week holiday in 1947. Written with an arresting immediacy, it records Athill's observations and adventures as she travels through Italy with her friend Pen. The diary chronicles their experiences eating out, admiring architectural sights, sampling local pastries, and getting into scrapes while trying to make the most of their budget. Infused with a vibrant joie de vivre, this colourful evocation of a bygone era offers a fresh perspective on a city that will be familiar to any contemporary traveller. This diary is a bright and engaging portrait of life in Florence during a time long past.
