In this wryly affectionate book, Hofmann reveals his adopted countrymen in all their glorious paradoxes, capturing their national essence as no other book has done since Luigi Barzini's classic, \u003ci\u003eThe Italians\u003c\/i\u003e. The national art of arrangement-- dodging taxes, double-dealing, working only as hard as one must-- is counteracted by Italian inventive genius, gusto for life, fierce individuality, deep family bonds (as well as animosities), and a marvelously hedonistic sophistication.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Holt Paperbacks","offers":[{"title":"That Fine Italian Hand | Paul Hofmann | Paperback | 9780805017298 | Used: Very Good | Travelogues 1586447","offer_id":48368615817368,"sku":"1586447","price":7.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0492\/1609\/4360\/files\/71QN-R6g0VL.jpg?v=1773263773","url":"https:\/\/roundaboutbookstore.com\/products\/that-fine-italian-hand","provider":"Roundabout Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
