Mamma Milano: Lessons from the Motherland

$60

Over two decades ago, J.J. Martin made the move from Manhattan to Milan with no job, no friends, no family, no smart phone and no understanding of the Italian way of life. After struggling with this fresh start, she quickly realized that to make in il bel paese, she would need to loosen up, let go and just embrace the country’s chaotic, vibrant, big-hearted ways. Once she did, she discovered more joy, love, creativity, wonder and inner purpose than she could have imagined. Mamma Milano is a look into Martin’s self-transformation and the invaluable lessons she learned when she adopted la vita Italiana, as well as a celebration of Italy and all its intangible magic. Equal parts memoir, travel guide and design journal, this book is brimming with all the delights of Italian culture, from its food, style and family culture to its unwritten rules, quirks and customs. All of this is captured through vibrant photography and brought to life by Martin’s own recollections. She also introduces readers to some of Italy’s leading female tastemakers and shares the story of starting her own lifestyle and fashion brand, La DoubleJ. Required reading for both anyone looking to rocket their own creative journey, Mamma Milano is sure to be an endless source of inspiration — and also just looks lovely laying out on the coffee table thanks to its vibrant patterned cover, modeled after an exclusive La DoubleJ fabric!
