I enjoyed this small easy to read book The Countesses of Castello by Milena Agus (translated from Italian). Three sisters, Noemi, Maddalena and Countess Ricotta live in their crumbling ancestral home, now divided into separate apartments, with some sold off. Noemi and Countess Ricotta are looking for love and Maddalena enjoys a loving marriage but yearns for a child. They each have very different personalities - Noemi a very serious lawyer intent on repurchasing the rest of their building and thinks she's too old for love. Maddalena is very passionate and has a beautifully erotic relationship with her husband. Countess Ricotta - so named by her Nanny for her clumsiness is a single mother to a young son. This is a delightful, fun read. 31/2/5Saturday, July 23, 2011
