About this listen

Italy delights and stimulates with its magnificent cities and monuments, 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.

At home, however, Italian society and politics are facing challenges as the country struggles to maintain its standard of living, the stability of its currency, and its ability to provide jobs. The influx of refugees across the Mediterranean is putting pressure on both its social fabric and its economy.

Culture Smart! Italy is an insider’s guide to their daily lives, passions, and preoccupations. It introduces you to their history and culture and provides vital information and practical tips to help smooth your path in different social situations.

Concise and well written

An entertaining book exploring the history and culture of modern Italy. It was clear and concise, packed with valuable tips and insight on navigating relationships and day-to-day transactions. The chapters are outlined to allow for quick reference. The narration was excellent. I look forward to returning to it as a resource in the future.

Italian Business, History & Culture

This audiobook was a very helpful guide to Italy. I bought this audiobook to better understand how to do business in Italy and with Italians. I appreciated how the book shared specific info on meetings and how business customs differ in the north and south.

This book is written from the perspective of a British person, and includes helpful info for Americans.
