Ferenc Máté

¿Quién no ha imaginado una vida idílica en la Toscana, saboreando un buen vino, disfrutando de la mejor comida y de la amistad vecinal? Ferenc y Candace Máté, escritor y pintora, parecen haberlo logrado. Pero el verdadero sueño de Ferenc es crear su propio vino. Juntos aprenderán que para conseguirlo se requiere perseverancia, buen gusto, y sobre todo, la capacidad de reírse de uno mismo.

I got this book through goodreads and have been saving it until I was at the beach on vacation. I gave it 65 pages or so but I'm sorry to say I just didn't get into it and have passed it on to others who are on vacation with me.

A clear disappointment. It starts in Tuscany, but it’s a mythical Tuscany that may never have actually existed. According to the author it was, but is not quite now, idyllic in every way. He begins with each of those excellent qualities and then takes you along to other parts of the globe that compare poorly with his ideal.

There are one or two nice thoughts at the beginning, but the book is tiresome after just a little bit.

going to revisit this one. Enjoyed what I got through so far.
