Hooray!

Overall I am very satisfied. It came extremely fast (way before i was expecting it). It had a small dent on all the pages, but it doesn't inhibit reading it. As a poor college student i can really appreciate the price.

Extremely well written.....

I highly recommend this book to anyone interested in Italian culture, women's issues, politics, Cultural Anthropology or anyone who simply has a desire to expand their horizons by reading an exceptionally well written account about the Italian family of today. This book makes you think and dispells many stereotypes and misconceptions we have regarding the "typical" Italian family.
