A Slip of the Tongue: humorous and emotional short stories

Will Melina regret faking to be ill to avoid doing her chores? Can Don Pericle organise a wedding for a groom who doesn’t know? Who has stolen the marble pisces from the cathedral's floor? Twelve humorous short stories dripping with the Sicilian sunshine, ringing with not-so-well-kept secrets, fragrant with freshly fried arancine rice balls, ideal for your coffee break or as a bedtime read.

Written and Narrated by Stefania Hartley, The Sicilian Mama.

Praise for A Slip of the Tongue and other short stories:

It’s like a slim and elegant box of luxury chocolates, each treat more delicious than the last. Definitely recommended. - Ewan Smith

Super, observant writing. [Tanino and Melina] really should have their own sit-com. – Alan Spink, Editor of The People’s Friend Magazine, on the Tanino and Melina stories

Hartley doesn’t just give us stories, she gives us a slice of Italian life served with lashings of charm and wit. Highly recommended! – Ella Hayes, author of Italian Summer with the Single Dad
