Educated: At Randolph-Macon Woman's College, The University of Florida and San Francisco State University Resides: In Cortona, Italy, and San Francisco with poet Edward Kleinschmidt Profession: Professor of creative writing at San Francisco State Club selection "I am about to buy a house in a foreign country. A house with the beautiful name of Bramasole. It is tall, square and apricot-colored with faded green shutters, ancient tile roof, and an iron balcony on the second level, where ladies might have sat with their fans to watch some spectacle below." So begins the critically acclaimed "Under The Tuscan Sun," by Frances Mayes. Using powerful, poetic language, Mayes takes readers to the Italian countryside as she buys and restores an abandoned villa. "Under the Tuscan Sun" has reached No. 2 on the New York Times paperback best-seller list. It was the Bee Book Club selection for December 1997. "Under the Tuscan Sun" is part memoir, part travel guide, part cookbook. Says the New York Times: "This book seems like the kind of thing you'd tuck into a picnic basket on an August day. Or better yet, keep handy on the bedside table in the depths of January."

Header("books"); SideBar1("article"); SideBar2("article"); Wish you were here . . . Frances Mayes' Under The Tuscan Sun: At Home in Italy At this time of year when the holidays are over, the New Year begun, when the snowdrifts are ripe for sledding, and it is so, so cold, my thoughts turn to warm weather memories and dreams of travel. Thoughts like these put Frances Mayes' Under The Tuscan Sun into my hands. Mayes' book is a combination Travelogue, Journal, Do-it-Yourself Home Renovation guide and Cookbook. It is a wonderful collection of memories and experiences from when Mayes and her spouse bought and lovingly restored Bramasole, an old Tuscan villa in Cortona, Italy. Mayes fondly writes of the pleasures, perils, and the expense of cleaning, repairing, and renovating a large, old house, and working the surrounding land and garden. Through Mayes' poignant prose, she reveals both her fears and her pleasure at becoming a home owner in a foreign land. Mayes and spouse Ed are both university professors in San Francisco, and after the purchase of Bramasole, spend Christmases and three months of summer holidays working their fingers to the bone in their quest to create their dream home. When I first began reading, I thought they were crazy. It was just too much work. How was this fun? In the end though, after several summers of working and hauling, and excavating, and painting ... Mayes has her perfect dream home just the way she wanted it. The labour-intensive holidays were worth it and I became envious.

Programs Books Stations Comments Busting Loose Program 99-08-15-C To The Best of Our Knowledge from Wisconsin Public Radio If you're in a rut, feeling as stale as last week's bread, then we have the radio show for you. In this hour of To the Best of Our Knowledge , come meet a few people who find transcendental moments in everyday life. We'll also talk with best-selling writer Frances Mayes at her home in Tuscany — on why life in Italy is so sweet. SEGMENT 1: Writer Diane Ackerman tells Steve Paulson that like many other animals, human beings love to play. She talks about transcendence, "deep play" and swimming with dolphins. Her latest book is called "Deep Play." Also, David Breashears is a climber who scaled Everest to make an Imax movie. Breashears tells Jim Fleming how he got interested in climbing, that there are different kinds of climbing, and just how strong a successful climber has to be. SEGMENT 2: Michael Gelb is the author of "The How to Think Like Leonardo da Vinci Workbook." He puts Judith Strasser through a series of exercises intended to enhance sensual perception. Their props include a lemon, a lime, three apples, colored pens and music. SEGMENT 3: Frances Mayes hit the jackpot with her story of restoring an old farmhouse, "Under the Tuscan Sun." Her new book is "Bella Tuscany." Her Italian home has become a site of pilgrimage. While vacationing in Tuscany, Steve Paulson visited Frances Mayes and presents this tour of her house. Also

back to Archive Contents ARCHIVES Tuscany Calling: Frances Mayes's third book on Italy, In Tuscany, is another tour de force. by Patricia Morris Buckley For the first time in almost three decades, author and teacher Frances Mayes did not prepare her lesson plans this year. Instead, she was still in Italy, writing in the 200-year-old villa she's spent the last decade renovating. Of course, most readers of Mayes's work are very familiar with Bramsole, the summer home Mayes bought with her then-boyfriend, now-husband, Edward Kleinschmidt Mayes. In her 1996 memoir, Under the Tuscan Sun, Mayes's melodic prose told of her efforts to restore the house and soak in the Italian culture she had come to cherish. The overwhelming success of that book and the second, Bella Tuscany, allowed her to quit her teaching position at San Francisco State University in June. But, she admits, the transition from teacher and writer to full-time writer is a bit unsettling. "I've had five or six dreams about going back to school," she says from Bramsole. "You know those archetypal dreams where you're not ready for a test or something? It's just strange not going back to school."

Ex Voto Frances Mayes ISBN 0-918786-47-9, 72 pages, $12 "A poet of her world, a writer inventing the world as she moves through it, unwilling to accept anyone else's version...there is an immediacy combined with the sense of an ongoing traditional struggle that pushes the poem out, makes it a poem of necessity." San Francisco Chronicle "Mayes has an urgent interest in the ways past and present converge...she writes with terse magic." Los Angeles Times Net I do not like you walking through the dark house when I am sleeping You stand in the black kitchen filling a glass with tap water. I am dreaming upstairs. The skylight is like a light at the top of a tomb where someone lies undisturbed for a thousand years. The gauze netting falls around my bed, another level of sleep. But you are slowly drinking cold water. Between us the quiet is the black inside closed books, the light
