About this audiobook
Escape to Italy offers a group of repressed English travelers a chance to shed their stifling moral costumes and embrace aesthetic passion. However, the newfound freedom brings its own set of complications as they struggle to reconcile their pasts with their desires. It is a lush, atmospheric study of cultural clash and personal awakening.
