Books by Gaia Servadio

SALES POINTS The fascinating story of a major archaeological discovery Gaia Servadio is a well known, very promotable author with infectious enthusiasm for her subject 'A passionate enquiry into a place and a people; it is also a celebration of those who, during this century, have worked to uncover the truth' The Tablet 'Written with infectious verve, Servadio's book ... provides a fascinating account of the vanished Anglo-Sicilian Marsala merchants ... Motya is a lovely, melancholy book' Independent 'In its richness of detail, anecdote and political intrigue, Motya has something in common with Peter Robb's superb Midnight in Sicily. Both authors are infatuated with the island, its tortuous history, its confusions of light and dark, of beauty and ugliness ... she makes you long to visit Motya, and to look again at the Sicily that she loves' Sunday Times
