NEW: Quattordici (& 25% Off Italian/English Parallel Texts)

February 27, 2019 by Daniel

Italian-English parallel text ebook - Quattordici - cover image

Italian easy readers - Il secondo tragico Fantozzi - cover image

Buondì. Yesterday, feeling rather depressed at my prospects, I applied for a couple of jobs. In the unlikely event I’m offered either of them, it will mean moving to a different country, being apart from my family for long periods, and working in an office eight hours a day under the supervision of someone further […]
