About this listen

When writer Paul Stewart heads to the idyllic Italian town of Montalcino to finish his already late book, it seems like the perfect escape from stressful city life. Upon landing, however, things quickly take a turn for the worse when he discovers his hired car is nowhere to be found. With no record of any reservation and no other cars available, it looks like Paul is stuck at the airport. That is, until an enterprising stranger offers him an unexpected alternative.

While there may be no cars available, there is something else on offer: a bulldozer. With little choice in the matter, Paul accepts, and so begins a series of laugh-out-loud adventures through the Italian countryside, following in the wake of Paul and his Italian bulldozer. A story of unexpected circumstance and a lesson in making the best of what you have, My Italian Bulldozer is a warm holiday listen guaranteed to put a smile on your face.

Another beautifully crafted story from Alexander McCall Smith. How does he do it? A story that explores the human responses to love and desire, loss and belonging, and the ability to bring light and blessing into other peoples lives. I really enjoyed this book. The audible fully unabridged version with sir Timothy Ackroyd as the narrator was superb and really managed to make you feel that were in the Tuscan hills and vineyards, a sheer joy.

Heart warming and amusing tale.
