Royalties donated to Italy earthquake victims
I am donating one month's royalties of Chickens Eat Pasta: Escape to Umbria to the fund for the earthquake that struck this part of central Italy on August 24 2016 with massive loss of life and destruction. The money will go to the Italian Red Cross, one of the first relief organizations to respond and which continues to provide on-the-ground emergency care. Please support this work by buying a copy of Chickens Eat Pasta before the end of September. These people have lost everything and they need your help.
First book review:
This is a lovely book about an unplanned adventure in one of the world's most romantic places. It is beautifully written with charm, intelligence and humour and I found it hugely evocative of both time and place. It has the narrative pace of a novel - with some challenging time shifts to stop the reader getting lazy! - but the heart and painful honesty of a genuinely true story. I loved it.
