Italia – A Little Passion, A Lot of Dolce Vita

What does it really mean to be Italian? Italia is a celebration of one of the world’s most beloved cultures — a lifestyle defined by passion, tradition, and effortless style. From aperitifs and perfectly brewed espresso to fashion icons, feast days, and the sweetness of doing nothing (dolce far niente), this book captures the essence of la dolce vita.

Step into the Italian way of life through stories of timeless design, cinema’s golden age, historic cities where the past lives on, and the deep traditions of food and wine woven into daily life. More than just a country, Italy is a state of mind — indulgent, stylish, and endlessly inspiring.
