I saw the glorious Duomo di Milan yesterday — after a day that included a few worries. Sharing the highs — I met an angel in very practical, no-nonsense human form, I saw the Duomo in late-afternoon sunlight — and the lows . . . keeping it real, as my friend Sandy often says. Clcik through to read; maybe you have some travel reality of your own to share.

A musician’s memoir, a mystery in English (set in England); a mystery in Italian (set in Italy); a novel about women’s lives across the classes in India, and two wonderful debut novels set, respectively, in contemporary London and in Paris, France and Nablus Palestine during the first half of the 20th century. I hope you’ll find something to read among these titles, and perhaps add your own suggestions to the ensuing conversation.
