Marlena di Blasi seduced readers to fall in love with Venice, then Tuscany, with her popular and critically acclaimed books
A Thousand Days in Venice
and
A Thousand Days in Tuscany
. Now she takes readers on a journey into the heart of Orvieto, an ancient city in the less-trodden region of Umbria. Rich with history and a vivid sense of place, her tale is by turns romantic and sensual, joyous and celebratory, as she and her husband search for a home in this city on a hill—finding one that turns out to be the former ballroom of a dilapidated sixteenth-century palazzo. Along the way, de Blasi befriends an array of colorful characters, including cooks and counts and shepherds and a lone violinist, cooking her way into the hearts of her Umbrian neighbors.
Brimming with life and kissed by romance,
The Lady in the Palazzo
perfectly captures the essence of a singular place and offers up a feast—and the recipes to prepare it!—for readers of all stripes.
