What a great guide. One question though. I seem to have read somewhere that the train from Fiumicino airport stops at Roma Trastevere station. Is that correct? Rome is filled with breathtaking and historical art pieces, top to bottom. But when you finally arrive on Roman soil, it might feel overwhelming.

Giacco’s novel is proof that a book doesn’t require a flashy plot to carry enormous weight. Emilia grapples with her role as an artist, memories of her previous relationship, and what it means to love people in her life who perhaps do not deserve it. The characters are flawed and real and conclusions are not wrapped up tidily. This is a quiet exploration of heartbreak, art, freedom, memory, and new beginnings, made all the more powerful by the deftness with which Giacco reveals the characters to the reader and to each other.
