What is Renato's luck about?
"A native of sensuously beautiful Tuscany, Renato Tizzoni, waterworks man of the picturesque village of Sant'Angelo D'Asso, has an infectious zest for life. Recently, though, his rich and vibrant world has lost its piquancy. His best friend - who was his mentor and surrogate father - has recently died. His lovestruck teenage daughter has become a sullen stranger, and even his warm, passionate marriage has cooled. To make matters worse, the beloved town that has been his home is about to change irrevocably. Now "nothing tastes of anything anymore."" "Prompted by a dream, Renato resolves to rediscover the flavor of life through a trip to Rome. Listening to the individual stories of the people in his town, Renato begins to write their names and troubles on a piece of cheese paper to take with him on his trip. Soon Renato's personal quest becomes a town mission that sends him on a wondrous journey to the Vatican, where, by chance, he finds a way to save his marriage, his family, and even his village.". "Combining humor and pathos with sensual abandon, Renato's Luck captures the sounds, tastes, and sights of Italian village life as it resonates with the triumph of spirit."--BOOK JACKET.
