Synopsis

Join Claudia and her Italian-American father, Victor, as they navigate Italy by foot and rail. From the affluent city of Milan, to the economically-depressed streets of Naples, 500 miles due south, Claudia leads the reader into the pulsating heart throb of Italy's historic downtowns and enjoys a culture unblemished by big box architecture and "jacked up monster pick up trucks." As the duo ventures deeper into the Italian landscape, self-reflection seeps into Claudia's consciousness, as a second story begins to emerge. With the cobbled streets of Italy as the framework for her memoir, she is revisited by a life-threatening disease and a mountain climbing expedition in the Andes that plunge Claudia into her own personal vision quest.
