Review
"Lucy has a great eye for finding style where it naturally exists. Il Dolce Far Niente is a celebration of the inherent beauty of coastal Italy and its people - and of the Italian way of enjoying summer. This is not a book of pretentious exclusive hotels and restaurants; rather, it is a complete view of the seaside at its best - including young and old, rich and poor, locals and visitors. Having traveled to the Amalfi Coast in my twenties and visited Puglia just last summer, I’m reminded that there is so much more to see. I must go back. Soon!"―Amanda Brooks, Founder of Cutter Brooks Shop and Author
Ah, Italy in summer—a flirtation between sunbeams and cobblestones, where every gelato cone tells a tale. Lucy Laucht perfectly captures the timeless appeal of a season that dances between lemon groves and secret beaches, laughter and amore.―Marie-Louise Sciò, CEO & creative director of the Pellicano Hotels group

5.0 out of 5 stars Il Dolce Far Niente --- a TERRIFIC book

5.0 out of 5 stars Coffee Table Book

5.0 out of 5 stars Inspires you to take it easy and live the sweet life of doing nothing
This is a beautiful coffee-table-style book. But happily, it's not as heavy or oversized as a coffee table book. The retro pictures are gorgeous. The book is both a nice reminder to me of my past trips to Italy, and it makes me eager to visit again!
4.0 out of 5 stars Quality, well put together coffee table book
Three of the things on my long list of favorite things are travel, photography and beaches. So naturally this book caught my attention. The author has divided the book into 7 regions in Italy. It is mostly photographs but she talks about each region with information mostly about the beaches but also touching on food or other items of interest. It is not at all meant to be a travel guide, put more of a general interest coffee table book. The photography in the book ranges from some very beautiful scenery to some colorful artistic shots but I would say the majority would be human interest “snapshots”. I think it definitely provides a realistic view of what it is like to be there. I have found it very interesting to peruse and maybe get a feeling of what it might like to visit the beaches in these regions.To help understand how I rate items:My philosophy is, that for a rating system to be effective, the highest rating and the lowest rating should be reserved for a relatively small percentage of the best and the worst products. If I give a product four stars, it is because I believe it is a very good product. To get five stars from me requires a product to go above and beyond and really impress me beyond my expectations. By the same token, a product has to be VERY, VERY bad to get only one star from me. One thing that I DON'T take into consideration with my ratings is price. I may make a general statement such as “this is a good value” but it will not affect my star rating. The reason is that product prices change, even from day-to-day. Also what one person may consider a good price someone else might not. I feel it is more important to review the quality and features of a product and let the buyer decide whether the current price is worth it to them. Another thing that I don't take into consideration are issues with shipping. This is because the seller does not always have control over that. Following is each of the five categories of *stars* and how I assign them to a product:***** Five stars - The product exceeded my expectations. I really love it and would actively suggest it to friends and would certainly purchase it again if needed.**** Four stars - The product met my expectations. It does what it claims to do. I like it and would recommend it to someone if they asked about it. I would Most likely purchase it again if needed .*** Three stars - The product is average and for the most part does what it claims. There may be a few things I don't like about it. If I recommended it to someone, I would state my reservations. I may purchase it again if I could not find a better alternative.** Two stars - The product fell far short of my expectations. It may, in some respects, do what it claims to do but has far too many problems to overlook. I would never recommended it to someone nor would I ever purchase it again. There is a good possibility I would return it.* One star - The product is terrible. It has way too many cons and few if any pros. I would actively warn my friends away from it and would most likely return it if possible.
5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome book to add to my table stack

1.0 out of 5 stars Do better
Disappointed. I bought my first copy of this beautiful book a month ago and it was perfect. I loved it so much that I ordered two more as gifts for family members. They both came completely damaged. Water stains and tearing of the cover. These are beautiful books and should have been packaged better
beautiful!
amazing addition to your living room or console table
Lucy laucht. Need I say more?
Paper choice a bit too matte for my taste. Satin finish would have brought out the images and post production a little more, well curated and nice story telling von die Frau. An interesting mix of digital and analog photography. Bought 2 so it must have been good. 5 out of 5 potatoes
Long waiting and arrived damaged
Con piu di un mese di ritardo il libro è arrivato danneggiato. Very disappointed
Lucy Laucht fotographiert wundervoll
Ich kannte ihren Stil und wollte das Buch unbedingt haben. Der Text interessiert mich weniger, aber ihre Bilder sind der Wahnsinn. Sie fängt die Atmosphäre, die Coolness, die Schönheit der Orte so ein, dass einem beim Ansehen das Herz aufgeht.
Book bought as a present.
It arrived on the date stated in good condition. My son in law was delighted with it.
