Midnight in Sicily

by Peter Robb

One of the greatest charms of Robb’s book is his evident delight in southern Italy, particularly its food, which is recorded with such intensity of memory that one can almost taste it… As an introduction to post-war Italy, to the country as well as its politics, it can have few equals

Midnight in Sicily

Peter Robb’s journey into the dark heart of Sicily uses history, painting, literature and food to shed light on southern Italy’s legacy of political corruption and violent crime.
Taking the trial of seven-times Prime Minister, Giulio Andreotti, for alleged Mafia involvement as its starting point, Midnight in Sicily combines a searching investigation with an exuberant, sensual appreciation of this beautiful and bewildering island.
