A picture of Lake Como framed in mystery 'Beside Lake Como is a contemporary fiction with true-to-life characters that will draw you in.' An affair emerges that gradually unravels the life of wealthy Italian Lucrezia Bonucci, and a much younger hard up English artist. Set in the scenic paradise called Lake Como, this is a disquieting work of fiction with an insight into the inequitable lives of a family of village bar owners. As the protagonists move on, an unlikely marriage between highly attractive Claudia, the bar owner's daughter and Rocco, an ex-boxer, courier driver and dessert maker who finds some valuable jewellery that was hidden below the lake waterline from the advancing Allies during WWII, puts everyone's emotions and trust to the test, especially when Claudia fakes her own kidnap.The monumental mountains appear to rise out of the depths of the lake. Tiny villages huddle at the lakes edge, connected by narrow roads carved out of solid rock. At 6am the bells from the church start to peal as the sun begins to peep over the mountains. The light shifts and changes by the minute, striking the lush green mountaintops on the west side of the lake. Eventually, its beam reaches the water's edge, highlighting the pastel coloured shades of the painted buildings with their terracotta tiled roofs.No matter what the occasion, whether you are travelling with a friend, celebrating an anniversary or about to pop the question it's no secret that Lake Como is one of the world's most scenically picturesque locations for romance.

Reading the land enables us to read the Bible with greater insight. Though the truths of the Bible transcend time and place, they are rooted in them. Geographical data inform our understanding of activity in the land of the Bible, while the Bible's own description of these events, embedded deeply in the realia of the land itself, helps us better understand the living context in which these events took place. When we develop a skill set that allows us to read the land of the Bible as fluently as we might read the text, we stand not only to gain a better appreciation of the divine-human events of Scripture, we also gain an understanding of how these events become relevant to us in our own particular living contexts.

"An insightful and often funny depiction of Italian Life. In the second book of his Italian Trilogy, Paul relays more enthralling real-life stories about Italian village life." Hannah McIntyre, The Italian Insider Magazine - Though Lake Como has always had a reputation for exclusivity, it is now one of Italy's most expensive places to live. But alongside the high-fliers are the everyday people, rich, poor and all levels in between in this book, the sequel to the successful 'An Italian Home - Settling by Lake Como, ' expatriate artist Paul Wright, a resident of northern Italy for 30 years pulls no punches to give us his take on his Italian neighbours, workmates and clients. From time to time, he touches base with a group of men, retired from the restaurant trade, who spend their days seated around the fountain in the piazza of his home village of Argegno, making their own running commentary on the world as it passes by. Paul also travels outside the village boundaries too, to the surrounding Italian countryside, the Italian Riviera and Switzerland to work for all manner of clients, ranging from the reputable to the decidedly risky. After selling some of his trademark watercolours to an American couple, he visits the USA to paint a mural in their home in Vermont and enjoys a break in New York City, where he explores the art world.

"Paul Wright's tribute to the robust pleasures of village life brings out the generosity and humanity of the inhabitants of Lake Como" Desmond O'Grady, Italian Insider Review: - Just what is it like for a foreigner to live and work in a northern Italian village, and become part of the community? How tough is it to leave your home country and settle in a new one? What do you have to do to be accepted by the people who live in a village that has existed for over five hundred years? Award-winning stage designer and artist Paul Wright and his wife found out the hard way, working, playing, laughing, eating and drinking alongside the residents of a beautiful lakeside village on the shores of Lake Como. Paul and his wife had had enough of Britain in the 1990s recession so they left for Italy - except that they had no work there and Paul could not speak a word of Italian! That didn't stop them diving head first into the life of their adopted village, Moltrasio. They soon found work; Paul as a mural painter and his wife in an office in Milan, Paul was recruited by the local football team and they both took part in the fabulous summer and Christmas festivals and the mangialonge - the 'long eats' where groups of locals drive off into the country to feast on the best local food and wines, all day. They gain a new neighbour, George Clooney, who gained great popularity amongst the locals, and they lose an older, very near neighbour, fashion designer Gianni Versace who was brought back to rest in his native Moltrasio after he was gunned down in Miami. Paul's dry sense of humour and artistic observation brings the lakeside village and its inhabitants to life, and he is guaranteed to make your mouth water with his wonderful descriptions of the local food....
