Frances Mayes - widely published poet, gourmet cook and travel writer - opens the door on a wondrous new world when she buys and restores an abandoned villa in the spectacular Tuscan countryside. She finds faded frescoes beneath the whitewash in the dining room, a vineyard under wildly overgrown brambles - and even a wayward scorpion under her pillow. And from her traditional kitchen and simple garden she creates dozens of delicious seasonal recipes, all included in this book. In the vibrant local markets and neighbouring hill towns, the author explores the nuances of the Italian landscape, history and cuisine. Each adventure yields delightful surprises - the perfect panettone, an unforgettable wine, or painted Etruscan tombs. Doing for Tuscany what Peter Mayle did for Provence, Mayes writes about the tastes and pleasures of a foreign country with gusto and passion. A celebration of the extraordinary quality of life in Tuscany, UNDER THE TUSCAN SUN is a feast for all the senses.

Belgareth had vanaf het begin meegemaakt hoe de aarde uiteenspleet, nadat de duistere god Torak de Orbus van Aldur had gestolen, en goden en mensen in een duizendjarige strijd verzeild waren geraakt. Aldur draagt Belgareth op een van zijn twee dochters uit te huwelijken aan de koning van Riva, omdat uit deze verbintenis het Kind van het Licht geboren zal worden, dat hen de Orbus tegen Torak zal beschermen. Belgareth, wetend dat Riva dromen heeft waarin zijn mooiste jongste dochter Beldaran verschijnt, hoeft niet lang te aarzelen wie van zijn dochters de bruid zal worden. Maar de Orbus is niet tevreden over Belgareth's keuze en had liever diens humeurige en lastige, maar uiterst scherpzinnige oudste dochter Polgara als de toekomstige koningin van Riva gezien. Wanneer het huwelijk toch wordt gesloten, zijn de gevolgen voor geen van de betrokkenen te overzien...
