A young American studying in Rome gets swept up in the glamorous world of cinema when he meets a beautiful Italian actress near the end of her career and an irrepressible American TV star hoping to revive his.

In this romantic and comic story about class, language, and the art of reinvention, “Nebraska Jack" Rigel is about to quit his Latin studies program at the Vatican when he suddenly finds himself face-to-face with the mysterious and ethereal Angelina Amadio, the famous Angel of Rome. Hired to translate the romantic feelings of the unpredictable former TV detective Ronnie Tower, Jack must navigate these two forces of nature in a Rome of late night bars and fancy villas, as he searches for his own role to play.

The Angel of Rome was a happy surprise! A short, sweet, unique, just-right little gem, it held good humor, smiles and some opportunities for outright, laugh out loud delight in its unusual minutes. A great little short story that felt all so real, in its take on coming of age, friendship, compassion and the miraculous transforming power of going for it, whatever the It might be. Excellent production, writing, narration.
Thanks for giving all of these talented people the opportunity to bring this production about, Audible. Brava!

This was a short “listen” I really enjoyed. The storyline was artfully put together with unforgettable characters. The dialogue was so real, and in some places very funny, and in others, quite poignant.

Talented writers and wonderful narration

I could have listened forever but that would have spoiled everything. Rome, my favorite city is only enhanced by this beautiful story.

Perfection!

Loved it! Fun and unique storyline, Jack was sweet and innocent yet curious about life (male coming of age) drew me in, fun and interesting characters. Thought the naration was excellent, Spoiler Alert: always love a good "Hollywood " ending, this didn't disappoint!

Enjoyed!

Just lovely. Funny, touching, clever & entertaining. There have been a few of the shorter included audible offerings that have delighted and impressed me, however this is my absolute favorite so far. Loved everything about it. Such talent in which a creator also could do an impeccable job at narration, holds my hope for more like this.

Brilliant

I was not sure what to expect when I downloaded this book. I was looking for something totally different to the apocalyptic books I have grown so tired of. This made a wonderful afternoon of listening. Everything about it was wonderful. The writing, narration and story make me wish it was a longer listen.

Brilliant!
