Reviews
''This is a book that will appeal to the intelligent and curious visitor to Florence, not least for its culinary interludes. Take this book to a shady bench in the Boboli Gardens and turn off your phone.'' Katherine Mezzacappa '' In the Foreword to this novel, the author writes that 'a good story should be very like a good meal and should be just as satisfying'. The Rose of Florence is indeed a veritable feast.'' Helen Lucitt '' Angela's delightful story takes us into the heart of renaissance Florence - we are immersed in its sights sounds and smells - its magnificent architecture - the din of the streets - its pungent cookery - its characters - all brought vibrantly alive in her rich and colourful writing -conjuring the very life of the city at this dangerous time.'' Angela Minoli ''Always keen to read debut novels, 'The Rose of Florence' did not disappoint. I found myself fully engrossed in the story even though it's set in a period I knew very little about. I had to keep turning the pages to the novel's satisfying conclusion.'' Jan Baynham ''The Rose of Florence is a beautifully written novel, full of vivid description that will whisk you away and draw you in from the start.'' Helga Jensen Author of 'A Scandinavian Summer'
