‘Beautifully written’ EVE
‘Part love story, part murder mystery, part psychological study… her writing truly soars’ TIME OUT
Thirtysomething New Yorker Lucy Stark leads a quiet, solitary life working for a bestselling – but remarkably untalented – writer. When he dies at a villa in Tuscany, Lucy flies to Italy to settle his affairs. What begins as
a grim chore soon threatens her self-reliance and her very sense of reality.
In Italian Fever, Valerie Martin evokes a modern woman’s headlong tumble into a world where E.M.Forster’s angels feared to tread. Smart and sophisticated, this novel takes us on a journey from which we return, like Lucy, utterly changed.
