The Italian translation of Vagabonding appears to doing very well in the six weeks since it was released. On the strength of the earlier La Repubblica review, as well as enthusiastic new reviews in Turismo, Donna Moderna, and La Stampa, Vagabonding appeared at #17 on the Arianna nonfiction bestseller list, and has been bouncing around the Top-50 at IBS Italia (which is the Italian equivalent of Amazon.com).
Now if I can just get my publisher to send me a copy of the Italian version — I still haven’t seen it yet!
