Home Bookstore Cooking Reviews ... Under the Tuscan Sun: At Home in Italy Voluptuousness of Italian life Reviewer: The Rebecca Review.com “I thought I was strange to feel this way. Since I've met so many people who read Under the Tuscan Sun, I've found out that lots of people feel this way. It's complicated but feels so very easy. The warmth of the people, the human scale of the towns, the robust food, yes, but I've begun to think, too, that it's the natural connection with art, the natural exposure to beauty on a day-to-day basis.” –Frances Mayes Frances Mayes presents a sensual celebration of Tuscany with hypnotic descriptions of culinary bliss and everyday rituals on long days when she savors the sun. This is creative writing heaven! She is not only a best-selling author, widely published poet and gourmet cook; she is also a travel writer who can describe lands and culture in sensuous and evocative language. Halfway into the book, I became heady with the desire to just run away to Tuscany. I want to write like her, I want to think like her, I am intoxicated by her creativity.

Monday, April 02, 2007 [Book Review] A YEAR IN THE WORLD by Frances Mayes Nonfiction/ Travel Writing Jane Carter reviews A YEAR IN THE WORLD : JOURNEYS OF A PASSIONATE TRAVELLER by Frances Mayes (Broadway Books, 2006) Frances Mayes, the popular author of Under the Tuscan Sun , once again writes with lyrical passion of her travels to twelve new places across Western Europe and Africa. Actually, this narrative spans a five year period, in which Mayes and her husband sample everyday life through each region’s cuisine, gardens, and culture. Imagine being able to savor Naple’s pizza, Sicily’s seafood, Crete’s lamb, and Scotland’s shortbread, with a few recipes thrown in. You travel with the couple on the Aegean Sea, hike to archaeological sites, scour museums, and live among the inhabitants of every region, soaking up literary, architectural, and social history. This book is definitely for everyone, but particularly for armchair travelers who love to be transported and immersed with beautiful prose to exotic and unknown regions of the world.

14. Interview | Frances Mayes And where this reaction might perhaps be questionable in another writer, from frances mayes it s somehow not even surprising perhaps it s almost expected. http://januarymagazine.com/profiles/fmayes.html

Buy it online "It never occurred to me that there would be anything in common between growing up in the [American] South and living in Italy. As it turns out, they're both rural cultures and they both have an intense sense of community, so those were big things. I think beyond that, the main thing is that there's this great, friendly, generous, welcoming spirit in Tuscany that is exactly like Georgia, where I grew up. People want to eat with you, they want to talk to you. They take time, they're not in a rush. It's a pace of life that's similar." "Can I ask how old you are?" It's something I always ask the people I interview. I ask it as calmly as I ask where they live, if they're married or if they have children. Razor sharp pencils or a word processor? It's one of several personal things that readers like to know that are generally easily shared by an author. It gives us context: a point of reference and cross-reference with our own lives. She recoils, though prettily. "Oh no! What a horrible question." And where this reaction might perhaps be questionable in another writer, from Frances Mayes it's somehow not even surprising: perhaps it's almost expected. She is, originally, a daughter of Georgia and even though she hasn't lived in the South for many years, there remains something deeply Southern about her. "I just feel kind of metabolically Southern. It's something that doesn't go away."

It Takes a Villa In 1990 Frances Mayes, then a professor at SFSU, sank her savings into a dilapidated 300-year-old villa in Tuscany. She and her future husband, Ed, enlisted the help of workers who lived nearby to restore the house to its former glory. Mayes chronicled their scrubbing, digging, cooking, shopping, planting, and painting in "Under the Tuscan Sun," a 1996 memoir which enjoyed an initial 162-week stay on The New York Times bestseller list. The Hollywood version, which hit theaters in September, takes a few liberties with the book, but Mayes says the message is the same, that life in Italy is indeed la dolce vita. Hours before a phone interview from her home in Cortona, Italy, three weeks after the release of the Touchstone Pictures movie, "Under the Tuscan Sun," Mayes (M.A., '75) learned that her memoir was back at #1 on the Times' nonfiction bestseller list. "When I found out this morning," she said, "I felt like throwing open the window and going woo-hoo, woo-hoo!" Lately, Mayes has had plenty to woo-hoo about. Her first novel, "Swan," a story inspired by memories of her hometown of Fitzgerald, Ga., hit bookstores during the movie shoot. There are two new books in the works, and move over, Martha Stewart in the fall Mayes launched her own furniture line with Drexel Heritage, a collection called "At Home in Tuscany" that includes reproductions of antiques Mayes has collected across Italy.

By Don George April 14, 1999 I met Frances Mayes about two decades ago. Back then, the poet and memoirist author of the mega-bestselling "Under the Tuscan Sun" and of the new sequel, "Bella Tuscany" was a professional poet with two published works and a teaching post at San Francisco State. And I was a would-be poet fresh out of a graduate writing program, where one of my teachers had given me Mayes' name to contact when I got to San Francisco. Now, three books of poetry and that life-changing memoir later, Mayes is sitting in the living room of her new Mediterranean-style home in one of San Francisco's most exclusive neighborhoods and laughing, recalling those penurious days. "My bestselling poetry book sold let's see probably around 2,000 copies," she says in a rich, slow voice that still carries a slightly syrupy Georgian drawl from her youth.

Ms. Mayes is a poet who has published five books of poetry plus a textbook, The Discovery of Poetry . For almost 25 years, Ms. Mayes taught creative writing to college students. With Swan , she adds novels to her repertoire, bringing together elements of her American homes in California, Georgia and her beloved Italy. 3:32 secs "Home." It's the place for which we long when we are not there, according to Frances Mayes. For her, that place now is Tuscany, which she introduced to the broader world in memoirs including the perennial favorite, Under the Tuscan Sun . Now Ms. Mayes has written a novel about another home, her childhood one in the American South. The elements common to both the South and to Tuscany are as intriguing to Frances Mayes as what makes her two homes different. Perhaps what they have most in common is odd characters, but it's the Land itself, more than the culture, that is defining in both places, she believes. South Georgia gave this memoirist and poet additional grist for her newest creative outlet. While she wanted to write a portrait of a place and an homage to the people she knew growing up, she also is intrigued by the idea of "will," by secrets and by timelessness. All three play major roles in
