Students at intermediate-advanced levels will be both challenged and entertained.

“This text is clearly the product of skilled and experienced classroom instructors of Italian. ...an exciting collection of stimulating and thought-provoking stories ranging from Benni to Severgnini and including Ginzburg, Malerba, Cucciari and Guareschi. Finally a truly engaging and entertaining contemporary cultural reader highlighting eight humoristic narratives supplemented with a variety of exercises designed to expand and refine grammatical and cultural understanding. Innovative and pedagogically rewarding exercises promote vocabulary building and idiomatic usage of Italian.”
