Un tè con Mussolini

A gang of British expats in Mussolini’s Italy find themselves parenting a traumatized orphan until history rudely reminds them fascism isn’t just rude dinner conversation. They shelter adolescent Luca in their Florence salon, where art, wine, and gossip briefly outshine the rising storm. Then the war arrives, turning afternoon tea into full-time crisis management.
