In the News


A grande village sagra


There are many banners hanging from buildings, to save this Iranian women condemned to death


There are dozens of these flyers pasted around town - At least 5 in the few blocks around us.



The newspapers - and there are 8 or 9 major national papers, plus a number of substantial provincial papers. And they often have promotions, allowing you to buy something - a book, a toy etc - at a discounted price. This is one such offering - a do-it-yourself model of the human skeleton- this one the rib cage - next week, something else.....


On the front page - a pan....for the book and the movie. Italians are very dismissive - considering it superficial, stereotypical..and untrue.
