Jutting proudly out of the Mediterranean Sea, like a miracle of nature, Capri is one of the world's chicest destinations - the European pleasure island. It is a place where well tanned Italians joyfully share the island's beauty with celebrities and emphatic island lovers: from limoncello, the native digestive, to its eponymous Capri pants, to the bright turquoise jewellery and bejeweled sandals made famous by its glamorous denizens. In a colourful tribute to the isle adored by literary icons and the jet set alike, author Pamela Fiori explains with resonant texts and vibrant images the effortless charm of this fabled island.
