Stolen Figs by Mark Rotella


Stolen Figs is a book about a man that visits his family in Calabria, Italy with his father. Memories of Mark's father come alive and the author learns about the history and adventures of the Rotella family. He meets many characters that all know his relatives because of the closeness the little town shares. It tells of places the author visits and the history of the town. As the author takes you through the town you feel like you are with him by the way he describes the sights, sounds, tastes, and how it feels. I enjoyed this book and felt like I was visiting Calabria.
