I would like to say that I got the "full package" (books, Penna 2003, LE 2005) around december and now I am so happy to have invested that money! I got hours and hours of nice reading and infos.
Letizia Jacopini made an oustanding job, as I already noted in a different post. I'd like to have something like this even for the second half of the century.

Plus: with the package I received a complimentary glass/aluminium inkwell signed giardino italiano.

Highly recommended!

Cheers,

p.s. no relation with Susanna, only a very satisfied customer!
