Italian Shoes

"This narrative follows a young man through Italy as he searches for his ancestral roots as well as his own identity. His pilgrimage, one that becomes sacred to the aspiring author as he searches for an authentic voice, takes him through Venice, Florence, Rome, and the Italian countryside where he works with peasants and follows the ancient traditions of blood and wine, leading him to rethink his philosophy and reevaluate the direction of his life."--BOOK JACKET.
