Bookdepository will sell me the Italian audiobook on CD for the same price Kobo charges for the ebook in the US. Which is great because I want to try reading along in Italian. It will be tough, but a great way to sharpen my Italian. And I do love the way cognates can give a different flavour, like this phrase from the synopsis: "il romanzo offre un'immagine del clima di disincanto e di
speranze deluse che seguì l'unificazione nazionale" - my speranze of finding a cheap copy in English were very deluse.
