La Strada Bianca: Tuscany, the artist's story

Set in Tuscany, La Strada Bianca is a memoir about living the dream and surviving the reality.A young artist from London steps into the unknown without a thought for the future and diving down the rabbit hole, nothing will ever be the same again, as six months stretch timelessly into twenty years.Cortona, Camelot-like, rises above a lake of clouds and a solitary bell rings out at dusk calling her children in to safety within the city gates. Tuscany casts a spell and the artist finds himself non a magical road of discovery, as Italy teeters on the brink of social and political upheaval.
