Description

Annually in the World is vintage Frances Mayes—a party of the allure of travel, of serendipitous pleasures within unlikely locations, of storage stitched in to the present, and of the wondrous feeling of quest. Together with her favorite Tuscany as a house base, Mayes moves to Spain, Portugal, France, the British Isles, and for the Mediterranean world of Turkey, Greece, the South of Italy, and Northern Africa. Weaving together individual ideas and knowledgeable discourse on art, architecture, history, landscape, and culinary and cultural customs, Mayes provides the immediacy of living in her short-term houses to visitors. An illuminating and passionate guide that'll be savored by all who liked Underneath the Tuscan Sun, Annually on the planet is travel writing at its maximum.
