My Italian bulldozer  Cover Image Book Book

My Italian bulldozer / Alexander McCall Smith.

Summary:

"When food writer Paul Stuart heads to the idyllic Italian hill town of Montalcino to finish his latest manuscript, it seems like the perfect escape from complicated city life, and his recent heartbreak. Upon landing, however, things quickly take a turn for the worse when he discovers his rental car is nowhere to be found. With no record of any reservation and no other cars available, Paul is stuck at the airport until an enterprising stranger offers him an unheard-of alternative. While there may be no cars available, there is something else on offer: a bulldozer. With little choice in the matter, Paul accepts and so begins a series of surprising adventures in food, wine, Tuscan history and modern romance as Paul rumbles through the countryside on his Italian bulldozer, pursued soon after by unplanned visitors from home."-- Provided by publisher.
