Notes from a Broad: My Uncensored Year in Italy

By Zia Wesley

F**k getting older ... get better. The best antidote to age? Expanding all your appetites. Join Zia Wesley, as she tangoes her way across Europe with style, humor and a set of sharp chefs knives, trading the comfort of her "golden years" in California for adventures in Italy, Greece and Turkey. In the first six months, Zia takes up residence in an ancient castle, learns to speak Italian, sings the blues with foreign bands, tangoes in the arms of a lover/teacher half her age, is stabbed in an alley outside the Grand Bazaar in Istanbul, swims in a radioactive sea in a "blue zone", and luxuriates in an elegant Turkish seaside resort as the guest of direct descendants of the last Ottoman Sultan. With an open heart and a desire to devour the world while inspiring others, Zia's wildly unconventional approach to life encourages her readers to embrace the unknown and learn to live with trust and passion. Indulging her love of cooking with fresh, local ingredients, Zia nourishes her newfound friends and shares her original recipes with you, the reader. You will be inspired to cater your own book club as you explore Zia's adventures and start to plan your own.
