Subtitled 'A short history from the Ancient Greeks to Cosa Nostra' John Julius Norwich's latest book is a fast paced, jaunty journey through the past 2500 years of this strategically and culturally important island. Inspired by half a century of interest in Sicily, Norwich attempts to explain the enigma at the heart of the island caught between East and West and fought over for centuries. If Norwich's earlier bestselling book on Venice caught your imagination, this new title is certain to do the same.
