The Road
Follow Elena Hart from Chicago to Sicily, one place at a time: how it feels to stand there, who she meets, a moment from the novel, and a question to carry with you.
Twelve places, from a city apartment in Chicago to a garden in Savoca.
The people along the road
A careful life in Chicago, until a letter from Palermo.
The contrada · his café on the square.
Taormina · ceramics, and laughter.
Few words, steady hands. He knows how to fix things.
And others you’ll meet further along the road.
