Part history, part reportage, part travelogue, Peter Robb's extraordinary portrait of Sicily reveals a country deep in trouble. Filled with scenes and characters and plots and tastes and smells and memories, it's an introduction to post-war Italy - the country as well as its politics - it's an epic story of evil and nobility juxtaposing essays on food and art with historical accounts.
Winner of the Victorian Premier's Literary Award for Non-fiction.
