About the Book
On an April afternoon in Via della Spada in Florence, Italy, an old man collapses. As he breathes his last, a crowd gathers, and Guido Iannotti's spirit soars forth on its comic, cosmic journey. When in Florence is a richly varied series of fifteen interwoven stories, in which a minor character in one story becomes the major character in another.
