“Waking Isabella” is a novel set in Arezzo Ita “Waking Isabella” is a novel set in Arezzo Italy! Take a trip to il bel paese in the pages of a book! 

Waking Isabella is a story about uncovering hidden beauty that over time has been lost, overlooked or suppressed. It also weaves together several love stories as well as a few mysteries. Nora, an assistant researcher, is a catalyst for resolving the puzzle of a painting that has been missing for decades. Set in Arezzo, a small Tuscan town, the plot unfolds against the backdrop of the city’s Antique trade and the fanfare and pageantry of its medieval Jousting Festival.
