Book Description
The Other Side of the Tiber illuminates Italy in an entirely new way, treating the peninsula as a series of distinct places, subjects, histories, and geographies loosely bound together by shared priorities and limits. A subtle and solid image of Italy emerges as does a multi-faceted portrait of the author. Earthquakes and volcanoes; a hundred-year-old man; Siena as a walled city; Keats in Rome; the refugee camp of Manduria; the Slow Food movement realism in Caravaggio; the concept of good and evil; Mary the Madonna as a subject--from these varied angles, Wilde-Menozzi traces a society skeptical about competition and tolerant of contradiction, and suggests the benefits of its long view of time and belief in beauty.

Book Description
On planet Mythos, a utopia is endangered when the Mothergod mysteriously dies right after childbirth. One son was planned, but five were born. With the death of their wise leader, a perfect chance arises for a criminal organization to take form. This shakes the utopia to its foundation and breaks the peace they've known for billions of years. Dimago was chosen as heir to Mythos, placing Vikor, the firstborn, on a path of revenge. The five brothers live their lives cluelessly running into each other as their fates are forever intertwined. The planet's destiny rests in their hands, but a mysterious figure has other plans for Mythos, pulling their strings from the shadows.
