The author Assunta Corbo, a freelance journalist, managed to long for a conspicuous series of traditional, bizarre, unmissable exhibitions until arriving at the fateful number 1001 which is not only a four-digit quantity but a real sign of how tiring but at the same time it must have been interesting to find these markets from the north to the south of the country.
The book has over 470 pages and shows two interesting indexes that divide the various markets scattered throughout Italy based on the region of the place they belong to or on the theme (flea markets, flower markets, children's markets, etc.). A diligent and well-organized guide, therefore, to be consulted easily without getting lost in the meanders of the numerous pages. “1001 Markets in Italy” is an excellent manual but also a book to read because, when you scroll through the pages, you are amazed by the originality that these popular exhibition spaces take on depending on whether you are in the city or in a little-known village.
At the well-known San Gregorio Armeno market in Napoli, therefore, which welcomes a considerable crowd of tourists and curious people every year contrasts with "the Torgnolein martsé" on stage in Torgnon, in the Aosta Valley. Where to buy “1001 Markets in Italy”? Assunta Corbo's book is available in major bookstores, large-scale retailers and online, from IBS a Amazon (both at the discounted price €8,42, original price €9,90) the choice is all yours. Happy reading and happy visiting the markets throughout Italy!
