I absolutely adored this book! It offers a beautiful, immersive look into the everyday lives of locals in Italy. Every photograph feels intentional and full of character, capturing small, meaningful moments that authentically reflect the region’s culture with heartfelt sincerity. The book feels like an invitation into a community that is welcoming, warm and wonderfully real, showing a deeper part of Italy that often goes unnoticed but deserves to be appreciated.

Irina and Ivan tell the stories of several people living in this very special part of Italy through thoughtful interviews and photos. Their conversations highlight both the joys and the struggles of the area, much of which focuses on summer tourism. They connect the past to the present by speaking with people who have a deep connection to the Riviera of Ulysses, and take pride in both the history and natural landscape. The natural beauty of the location is highlighted (and very visible in the photos). Still, I also appreciated that they didn’t shy away from discussing some of the more controversial topics, such as over-tourism and sustainability concerns. The photos are particularly stunning. They bring these subjects to life while maintaining a sense of true daily life here. I learned quite a bit about this area and its history, and enjoyed reading this.

What immediately struck me: it’s not about retelling the myth of Odysseus, but about showing what the place is like today, through the people who live there. A boatman, an archaeologist, a chef… You get to know this region of Lazio in a way no travel guide can. The photos are beautiful, but what really impressed me were the interviews. You can tell that the authors really took their time and had a genuine interest in the people. Perfect for anyone who loves Italy and prefers to delve deeper rather than check off sights.
