There is one day of the year when Italy seems to stand still: cities empty out, shutters come down, shop doors display the sign «Chiuso per ferie» (“closed for holidays”) and millions of people gather at the seaside, in the mountains or around a long table set outdoors. It’s 15 August — Ferragosto: the most […]
