Palermo (Armchair Traveller (Haus Publishing)) [Idioma Inglés] - Hardcover

'It's just a brilliantly written book.' 'So, yes, I would characterize Alajmo's Palermo as a love letter to his city - a whopping, entertaining dose of tough love, but would a Palermitano have it any other way? I just loved it. Fiver very full espresso cups out of five.' (Michelle Fabio)

Palermo’s heart lies hidden under its many outer layers. In this unusual guide to the beautiful Sicilian capital, Roberto Alajmo uncovers each stratum to reveal its true character. Although disguised as a tourist’s handbook, Palermo has much more to offer than ordinary recommendations for the intrepid traveller – it gives an insight into the city from a lifelong resident’s point of view, showcasing its hidden cultural and culinary jewels; portraying its people, and their secrets; touching on its politics and contentious mafia involvement. Seeing Palermo with one’s own eyes is an inef fable experience, even for Alajmo; the essence of the city, its beauty, is the only aspect left to the reader to discover.. NOTA: El libro no está en español, sino en inglés.
