Informazioni sull?autore

Thomas Jefferson once said that, “every man has two countries—his own and France.” Today, one could advance that, every man has two countries—his own and America. This is certainly the case with the author of this book, who in his Twitter profile describes himself as “European by birth, American by philosophy.” A blogger, a teacher (until a few years ago), a writer, S. R. Piccoli lives in the Venice area, Italy, with his wife, his daughter, and their dog. In December 2012 he published Blessed Are the Contrarians: Diary of a Journey Through Interesting Times.
