From Under the Tuscan Sun to Honorary Italian Citizenship with Frances Mayes
This week on The Italian Radio Hour - Few names evoke the enchantment of Italy quite like Frances Mayes. The best-selling author of Under the Tuscan Sun invited us all into her life in Cortona, a town she helped put on the literary map. Through her lyrical prose, we’ve wandered olive groves, savored local feasts, and rediscovered the meaning of home and belonging. Today, we welcome Frances back—not only as a beloved author and cultural guide—but as a newly honored Italian citizen.

Still Under The Tuscan Sun
This season, we’ve been talking about how to change. We’ve wondered: can a big move really change you? Or are you the same inside, just with new, prettier scenery? Frances Mayes, author of “Under the Tuscan Sun,” has opinions about this. Decades ago, she moved to Italy and changed her life. After she wrote about her experience, other people followed her lead. Almost 30 years after "Under the Tuscan Sun" was published (and about 20 years after the movie), Mayes still sees many strangers stopping by her home in Cortona. They leave notes of appreciation and small gifts, making a small...
