1960
The Best Year of Our Lives
Alfio Caruso
An informative and entertaining account of a single year that reflects a moment of change and extraordinary growth for Italy.
For Italians, the entire 1960’s are a decade of joy and optimism. An entertaining recount of the country’s economic growth in a single year: from the refrigerator and the television that entered homes and opened minds, to the legendary Fiat 500, not to mention the Rome Olympics, La Dolce Vita, and La Ciociara, De Sica, Loren, and the explosive singer Mina. A nostalgic trip through the joie de vivre of an extraordinary era.
