It is 1975 and Matthew is driving his mum, dad and aunt to a very special occasion in Rome. Innocents abroad, they are experiencing life on the Continent for the first time as they motor through France and Italy.

I enjoyed the book a lot more than I thought I was going to. I felt that the characters were written well and even though I haven’t experienced a lot of what occurred in the book, I really felt a sense of empathy for everyone.
