Dario Vergassola, comedian, singer-songwriter and writer, was born and lives in Liguria (Spice to be precise), but despite this he doesn’t complain or moan about it. Indeed, she decided to tell about it mysteries and beauties, inhabitants and nature, food and legendsthrough wonderful itineraries that cross it from West to East.
Ironic and ruthless with flaws but also unaware of the undeniable although unknown qualities of the Ligurians, Vergassola makes us discover the most hidden corners, the most coveted views, the sweet and savory delicacies starting, naturally, with the never-too-vaunted focaccia. Coasts and ridges, paths and coves, villas and gardens, palaces and churches are revealed by the expert eye and scathing writing of a true lover of this splendid region.
A precious one handbook for all foreigners – as those who were not born in Liguria are called by the locals -, a fun survival guide full of unmissable tips.
