Acerca de esta escucha
Italy delights and stimulates with its magnificent cities and monuments, its stunningly beautiful landscapes, the glory of its art and architecture, the richness and variety of its food, the elegance of its design and fashion, and the vitality and charm of its people. Italian style and culture have been exported all over the world. The Italians are the most European-minded of nations, having emerged from a long history of regional fragmentation. Italy - Culture Smart! introduces you to their history and culture and offers an insider's guide to their daily lives, passions, and preoccupations. This is your chance to get to know Italy.

If Fiona has learned anything in life, it’s how to keep a secret - even from the father who raised her. She is the only person who knows about her late mother’s affair in Tuscany thirty years earlier, and she intends to keep it that way...until a lawyer calls with shocking news: her biological father has died and left her an incredible inheritance - along with two half siblings.

Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 46
Since its formation in 1861, Italy has struggled to develop an effective political system and a secure sense of national identity. Christopher Duggan's acclaimed introduction charts the country's history from the fall of the Roman Empire in the West to the present day, and surveys the difficulties Italy has faced during the last two centuries in creating a unified country. Duggan successfully weaves together political, economic, social and cultural history, and stresses the alternation between materialist and idealist programs for forging a nation-state.

For many outsiders, Thailand still conjures up images of the East at its most mysterious and enchanting - a view largely formed by Hollywood films like The King and I. Never conquered by foreigners, this proud and ancient land has been shaped by Buddhism, the monarchy, and the military. Today, it is ranked among the tiger economies of Southeast Asia. It is a manufacturing powerhouse, the world’s largest rice exporter, and a tourist paradise that welcomes 22 million visitors a year to its beach resorts and its vibrant capital, Bangkok.

As exciting as reading Wikipedia
This overview of Italy is so flat and tedious, i stopped listening after an hour. Most of the information is very obvious ("each region has its own cuisine..."). Sometimes, the narration is downright offensive in talking about Italians like they are some kind of animal species being studied in a laboratory. Maybe it's just the stuck up English accent, but they whole presentation is a major turnoff for anyone excited about discovering Italy. Clearly, this is presentation is for English people who are just baffled that anything is different from where they live.
No humor at all.

Not nearly what I was expecting.
It was more of a history than a cultural insight. I only learned 2 or 3 very tiny details that were not common knowledge for travelers.

Just another history book
This book wasn’t for you, but who do you think might enjoy it more?
People not going to Italy.
What was most disappointing about Barry Tomalin’s story?
He wastes 1.5 hours, of a 3 hour book on history!!!!
If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from Italy - Culture Smart!: The Essential Guide to Customs & Culture?
I'd tell Tomalin to cut the damn fillers.....
