Amici di Italy Magazine,
This week we celebrate The International Women Day and dedicated all our features "alle donne"!
As Queen Elizabeth II cancelled a state visit to Italy, Carol King looks back at her first visits as a princess and then a young monarch to the Bel Paese.
Briana Palma interviewed Simonetta Agnello Hornby, a Sicilian-born lawyer living in England, who speaks about becoming an author, the beauty of writing and why seeing her novel The Almond Picker in bookshops around the world didn't particularly thrill her.
We also talked to Amalia, one of the three women, who run a small photographic studio in Rome. With a touch of their magic and a chosen robe they can make your dream come true and turn you in a Renaissance Queen, Vestal Virgin, or Baroque diva.
Finally, as Italian women celebrate "La Festa della Donna" on the 8th of March, we explain this tradition in a dual language article. You can try reading the Italian version first then check with the English one.
A presto!
ITALY team
