With the great Miroslav Sasek in the »Eternal City«: From the traces of antiquity – the Roman Forum, Pantheon, Colosseum, the Emperors – to the colorful life in Rome in the 1960s with its baristas and the residents happily rattling by on their Vespas. Sasek pays a visit to the most Roman Romans in Trastevere, but of course also to St. Peter's Basilica, the Fontana di Trevi at night and the crowded Sistine Chapel. He introduces theology students from all over the world and elegant carabinieri, enthusiastic spaghetti eaters and sullen wine merchants. We see white laundry drying against a bright blue sky, palm trees on rooftop terraces, oranges in backyards, and pyramids made out of Chianti bottles... All roads lead to Rome, but this book is undoubtedly one of the most enjoyable ways to explore the legendary city. Originally published in 1960, Rom is a loving facsimile edition of the original, augmented with an appendix containing information and dates about Rome today.
Miroslav Sasek (1916-1980) was born in Prague. Originally an architect, he began to write children's books. After the communists took power in 1948, Sasek emigrated to Munich, where he worked at Radio Free Europe between 1951 and 1957. He later moved to Paris, where he lived until his death. Already published: MUNICH, PARIS, LONDON, ROME, NEW YORK and VENICE.

Colin L.Really great customer service! We ordered something and it arrived earlier than expected and was lovingly packaged. A spare part that we had requested was also sent with no problems. Highly recommended. (Translated)
Josefine Macêdo de SouzaSimply the most beautiful baby and children's shop 💛🤩! The window decorations alone are so beautiful and lovingly designed, you can't just walk past here 🤗😅... the decorations are so beautiful that decoration isn't really the right word, it's really beautiful self-designed art. The selection of lovingly selected products and brands is large and a dream, and there are also self-sewn pillows that you can have individually made. I love coming here, and as well as buying gifts I now also buy things for my own baby 👶🏼😍 and I always feel really well advised!
