A fantastically funny story featuring a cast of colorful characters in a dying Italian village–and a giant truffle that changes their fate forever.
 

After nearly losing the election to a geriatric donkey, new Mayor Delizia Miccuci feels the sun has set on Lazzarini Boscarino. Tourists only stop for directions, Nonna Amara’s ristorante is gone, and town hall is overrun with glis glis poo—even Postman Duccio is disgraced. Only Bar Celebrità remains, where locals bicker, endure Giuseppina’s volcanic espresso, and wonder about their fading village.

But truffle hunter Giovanni Scarpazza just unearthed something powerful—un tartufo that could be a blessing or a curse.

Written with the wit and charm of Hollow Kingdom and Feral Creatures, Tartufo explores life’s interconnectedness and the beauty that can grow from hardship.
