Having battled manfully (or womanfully, or not at all) through the Via Merulana it is time for the club to move on.
My nominees for next book are A Simple Story by Leonardo Sciascia or the De Luca trilogy by Carlo Lucarelli (starting with Carte Blanche). Post your thoughts here or tweet them to @ginkers and we will take it from there. Happy to go for other suggestions too.
In an almost giallo-related aside, I watched The American with George Clooney last night which is set mostly in Italy. Lovely backdrop, plot was a bit lethargic. I ended up with a strange craving for a decent coffee in a smalltown bar somewhere. And maybe a nice countryside picnic...
