About this listen
Real Italian people don’t speak like your textbook…so it’s no wonder you feel unprepared when it’s your turn to speak! Try the StoryLearning method, and dive into a real-world, gripping drama between six characters that helps you learn authentic spoken Italian in the process.
Created by Olly Richards, internationally-renowned language teacher and author, this proven method of the immersive experience not only entertains, it gives you the skills to master realistic encounters in shops, cafés, and other, everyday scenarios! In this story, two friends, Alice and Nina, arrive in Rome for what they think will be a relaxing vacation exploring the city. Things, however, take an unexpected turn when they discover some very valuable paintings in one of Rome’s antique markets....
Whether you’re learning the Italian of Florence, Milan, Roman, Naples or even your local Italian-speaking community, you’ll learn to speak naturally wherever you go.
Best of all, you’ll be able to handle new scenarios with both ease and confidence!
“I love Olly’s work - and you will too!” (Barbara Oakley, PhD, Author of New York Times best seller A Mind for Numbers)
Here’s what you’ll get:
A. 101 Italian conversations with over 15,000 words of dialogue — an unparalleled resource that will immerse you in Italian at a level you can easily understand and reproduce.
B. Expressions that real people use on the street. You’ll sound more authentic when you speak and make Italian-speaking friends more easily.
C. Situational Italian dialogues that help you thrive in typical daily circumstances, so meeting people and making everyday arrangements will become second nature.
D. Conversations that are carefully written to be accessible for beginners (A2-B1 on the CEFR), so you can speak confidently, even with strangers.
E. Each conversation is limited to around 15 lines of dialogue (150 words) to help you master the expressions more quickly, and keep you moving toward the finish line.

Story
What is the hardest challenge you’ve faced as a student of the Italian language? You can work hard on your grammar, vocabulary, and pronunciation, but being able to communicate naturally isn’t easy. In fact, the toughest part of learning Italian is knowing how to speak like a native. Most textbooks are made to teach you the traditional rules and structures of a language and are great for getting around the grammar and spelling questions you may have.

Good dialogue listen in simple Italian
The recording is clear and well enunciated. There are some disparities between the book and the audio version, but on far in between. I was thrilled to discover nuggets of vocabulary that I found quite useful (I read and listen after having progressed in Italian, which offered many benefits). The only reason I don’t give 5 stars is that at times the story reads less Italian and more Anglo-Saxon in style. It is still enjoyable and it comes in small, easy to consume morsels of dialogues. I recommend it.

Among several books that I’ve heard from this of author, this is the best
I liked the book a lot because it has compelling story and pretty understandable level of Italian. But I would say that it is mostly B1/ B2 level, according to my feeling. I wish they had more books like that.

Wonderful
I find this book perfect for my learning level which is something like low intermediate. I'm using the audible version in conjunction with the book. They are a perfect combination. Each "conversation" is very short, which makes it easy to work on and digest. My method is to listen first, maybe a few times, and get what I can, then study the text, and then listen again. But everybody will have their own method. The many "Conversations" are actually one story, and the story is very engaging. It pulls me along; it's lots of fun.
There are several other books, rather similar, all I believe by Olly Richards. One of them is called "Short Stories in Italian." It too has a corresponding audio version and is very good, but the stories / chapters are much longer than the "conversations" and so it takes me longer to digest them and sometimes I bog down. But that is a small problem. I highly recommend this one along with the "101 Conversations."
And another book is called "Conversational Italian Dialogues." Each Dialogue is around 200 words, about twice as long as the "Conversations" in "101 Conversations." I think this Dialogues book is also excellent and recommend it highly. However, unlike the other two -- the "Conversations" and the "Stories" -- the Audible version of the Dialogues is hard for me to listen to. One of the readers in each Dialogue is a native speaker, while the other is glaringly not. It's really jarring. But I would recommend the Dialogues book very highly in itself.
Overall, for me, the 101 Conversations, combination of book and audible, hits the mark best, but I think the other two are also excellent. Olly does a great job getting exactly the right level of difficulty mixed with engaging stories and situations.
Thank you Olly!

Surprisingly good
I own a lot of material from Olly Richards and I appreciate how it has helped me in three foreign languages. However, some of the other material was, despite his best efforts, kind of dull at times. With this style of "101 conversations", I think he hit the nail on the head. I expected 101 random and/or dull conversations, but I quickly realized that it was being used as a tool to tell the story. In short, this is a mini novel told through dialogues. Between dialogues, there is a bit of exposition to also helps to advance the story and change the setting. A small glossary is given at the end of each chapter. I was pleasantly surprised that story was actually an art theft mystery! I found myself wanting to know how it would end. That's good -- I believe language learning happens when you a) /need/ to learn, and when the language becomes just a /medium/ instead of the focus of the activity itself. Well done also, Marco Soldà (narrator). Unlike many such books, this person understood that it was his job to bring to life the many characters and their feelings. When the characters are stressed or running, you can tell. When someone is acting clever, you can tell. Overall, it's way better done than a lot of the material for learners where it seems like the only qualification for "voice acting" is the ability to speak the target language.

Fun Entertainment studying Italian!
After self studying Italian for several years from a more grammatical point, then setting my studies aside for two years, I decided following the advice of Ollie and others to engage in extensive reading. I can see how my grammar has helped so much to make the reading far more comprehensible. I wish I had not taken that break of two years, but it's a great asset to remember as much as I do which aids my reading comprehension. NOTE 1: I have several other short stories in Italian from other publishers. Ollie is probably #1. NOTE 2: I bought the print copy of the book to read while listening and to be able annotate the book. Really, the two must be used concurrently. I think the Audible may have a PDF text file but that's never as good as paper!

Crappy audio quality.
Olly’s other stuff is top notch Audio. This one is rushed, poor audio quality, and one speaker for multiple voices. Crap overall and unlistenable.
