Items related to Cafe Life Rome : A Guidebook to the Cafes and Bars...
The cafe is indisputably central to Roman life. Café Life Rome is the first guide book dedicated solely to the cafés and bars of Rome. Instead of relying on city guides with cursory listings, this book, with its rich photography and informed descriptions, steers travelers through Rome's 5,000 bars to the perfect cafe. Café Life Rome focuses on thirty of the best, in four different areas of the city. Some of these establishments are hundreds of years old and some are relatively young, but each has a story to tell. These cafés also offer food and drink at reasonable prices, or a specialty of the house worth a small splurge. Visitors will be able to choose a comfortable bar close to their accommodations, make it a hangout of their own and watch the Romani at close quarters. It may even be a place where Hemingway or Fellini came to unwind, too.

About the Author:
Joseph Wolff is a freelance and screenplay writer who would rather be in Rome drinking cappuccino. Roger Paperno has shot photos for clients all over the planet, working to capture the beauty present in everything from smoky Roman cafés to cruise ships in the Panama Canal.
Review:
"...deserves a spot in you carry-on luggage...also a treat for those who rarely journey beyond their living room. Roger Paperno's photographs and Joe Wolff's descriptions bring the city's drinking establishments to life." -- TimeOut New York "A quirky book with offbeat, sometimes offhand, charm...Photography by Roger Paperno rounds the book out nicely." --San Francisco Chronicle
"This beautifully illustrated guide is essential for visitors having to choose between the 8,000 caffes--which can mean a café, a bar, or simply a coffee--and why they're so fundamental to the Italian community." ----OK! Magazine
"This book could help a reader easily, and quickly, feel at home in Rome's cafes, not only becoming acquainted with what kind of coffee or gelatin is available, but getting a feel for how the personality and the ambience were created." ----Chris Arvidson, Foreword Magazine
