Publisher's Summary

Emilia, an artist, arrives in Rome alone. What was supposed to be a romantic trip has, with the sudden end of her relationship, become a solitary one.

Six days lie ahead. She wanders the streets, surrendering herself to the music, food and beauty of the city.

But when she meets John, an American living out a seemingly idyllic existence in Rome, their instant connection challenges how she sees her past, her family and herself. As their intimacy deepens, can Emilia begin to imagine life anew?

Visceral, decadent and deeply evocative, Six Days in Rome is a novel about reckoning with complex pasts and choices made—and finding what you didn't know you were looking for.

Critic Reviews

"A stunning writer and a brilliant transporting experience." (Lisa Taddeo, best-selling author of Three Women and Animal)

"Sensorial as hell.... An ode to funky wine labels, good taste and true inspiration, Francesca Giacco has penned a stunningly cool and stylish debut." (Paul Beatty, Man Booker Prize-winning author of The Sellout)

"If Sally Rooney and Frances Mayes co-wrote a novel in an Airbnb near the Spanish Steps, it might read something like Six Days in Rome." (David Ebershoff, best-selling author of The Danish Girl)

I loved the way this book transported me out of my world. It’s winter where I am and Six Days in Rome was a warm blanket that wrapped me up in an Italian summer.

Could read this time and time again

I’ve never really enjoyed rereading books like I have enjoyed rewatching television shows, but this book is on high rotation. From how romantically Rome is portrayed, by someone who obviously loves Rome; to the actual story line… this book is sensational!
