{"product_id":"9781780600093","title":"In Sicily - Norman Lewis","description":"In Sicily is a loving take on an extraordinary island, based on Norman Lewis's sixty-yearlong�fascination with all things Sicilian! Few places on earth have escaped the singular eye of Norman Lewis, but always, in the�course of his long career, he has come back to Sicily. From his first wartime visit - to a land�untouched since the Middle Ages - through his frequent returns, he has watched the island�and its people as they have changed over the years! Dedicated to a Sicilian journalist killed by a Mafia bomb, he rarely lets us forget the�presence of organized crime. We benefit from his friendships with policemen, journalists�and common people. Moreover, he writes beautifully of landscape and language, of his�memories of his first father-in-law (professional gambler, descendant of princes and�member of the Unione Siciliana), of Sicily's changing sexual mores, of the effects of African�immigration, of Palermo and its ruined palaces - and of strange superstitions, of witches�and bandits and murder.","brand":"Norman Lewis","offers":[{"title":"Illustrations \/ 20\/10\/2016 \/ Travel \u0026 holiday guides","offer_id":57556999307639,"sku":"9781780600093","price":12.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0682\/9454\/1624\/files\/9781780600093.jpg?v=1791969267","url":"https:\/\/gulpfictionbooks.com\/products\/9781780600093","provider":"Gulp Fiction","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
