In two weeks The Best Place on Earth (or as it is called in Italy,Il posto migliore del mondo) is going to Italy for an eight-day tour. In addition to the recent publication of the book by Nuova Editrice Berti, my story, “Brit Milah,” has also been translated and included in an anthology of stories about motherhood published by Einaudi.
