Staff Reviews:
Elisabeth says: ON PERSEPHONE'S ISLAND is one of my favorite books ever. It's not the "ex-pat-in-Italy" memoir you're expecting, but it IS the one you need. In her account of life in Sicily, Simeti explores the generosity and scarcity in earth's - and life's - seasons, teaching ourselves and our children to resis systemic injustice, and so much more!
