Synopsis
Imagine the River Tiber as an alimentary tract. Picture a hungry saint. Think of erotic Renaissance fruit paintings, transubstantiation and a tiramisu caf where magic is surely on the menu. . . This highly original interpretation of Rome's history, culture, art and religion takes the form of a book about food that's not really about food at all.
