Publisher's summary

In Sicily: Land of Love and Strife, the process of capturing the island nation on film is revealed.

A country rich with natural beauty and historic sites, and a people distinguished by their passion, struggles, philosophy, and the depth and diversity of their culture, has unfortunately been overshadowed by its association with organized crime. Spano invites the listener to follow him on his journey to celebrate the real Sicily, and to change the public perception of his family's homeland.

Don't Bother

The story itself didn't grab my attention, but I still would have finished it if the pronunciations from the narrator weren't so bad.

Meh...

A rather mediocre personal travel log and a pretty poor audio reading. there were some interesting historical tidbits and a few insightful commentaries on what the author observed. however there's really nothing remarkable about this story nor does it make me want to watch the documentary. finally, the reader had a very annoying habit of over pronouncing many of the words and names. and often his pronunciation was incorrect. this made it a very hard book to listen to since the reader did not have a full command of Italian pronunciation.
