Thirty-something New Yorker Lucy Stark leads a quiet, solitary life working for a bestselling but remarkably untalented writer. When he dies at a villa in Tuscany, Lucy flies to Italy to settle his affairs. What begins as a grim chore soon threatens her self-reliance and her very sense of reality.
In 'Italian Fever', Valerie Martin evokes a modern woman's headlong tumble into a world where EM Forster's angels feared to tread. Smart and sophisticated, this novel takes us on a journey from which we return, like Lucy, utterly changed.
