Lucinda Faulkner's New Book Married to Italy: Love, Lies

A Candid, Humorous, and Eye-Opening Memoir That Pulls Back the Curtain on the Realities of Life as a Foreigner in Italy
Literary companions offer the best way to explore the world with a new perspective, and exploring something through others' experiences makes you learn a lot. Lucinda Faulkner is here with her literary masterpiece, Married to Italy: Love, Lies and Legal Nightmares, inviting you to discover an incredible journey with highs and lows with a perfect fusion of romance, heartbreak, and legal nightmares. This honest and exciting story shows what it's really like to start a new life in Italy, not just the beautiful views of vineyards, sunny beaches, and old town squares. Faulkner takes readers on a journey through the funny, frustrating, and sometimes crazy parts of dealing with love, betrayal, and a legal system that feels like it was made to test your patience.

Married to Italy is far more than a personal story, it's a brutally honest, often hilarious, and deeply revealing account of life in a country that both seduces and frustrates in equal measure. What seems as a fresh initiative soon transforms into a labyrinth of inefficiency, outdated legal systems, and cultural contradictions that leave Faulkner questioning everything she thought she knew.

Italy, known for its poetry, passion, and history, is also a place where legal proceedings take so long that by the time you attend your court date, the outfit you bought for it is already out of style. It's a country where men can be hopeless romantics, until they get what they want, at which point they forget about you. It's a place where getting justice can feel as impossible as getting a plumber to show up on time.

From the highs of a honeymoon phase filled with romantic whispers and endless plates of pasta to the lows of a divorce process so drawn-out and painful it could qualify as an Olympic event, Married to Italy pulls no punches. Faulkner lays bare the realities of being a foreign woman trapped in a system that often leaves women feeling abandoned, mistreated, and left to fend for themselves. The book is a crash course in inefficiency, a deep dive into the darker side of Italian culture, and a hilarious, self-deprecating survival guide for anyone who has ever fantasised about running away to Italy for love.

About the Author

Lucinda Faulkner [https://lucindafaulkner.com/] was born and grew up in the peaceful countryside of Cambridgeshire, UK. She lived on her father's farm, where she learnt to love nature and stay strong during tough times. Wanting adventure and a new beginning, she made a big decision to move to Italy, dreaming of new chances. But instead of an effortless life, she found herself stuck in confusing legal problems, endless paperwork, and a tough fight to keep going in a system that felt like it was trying to break her spirit.

In this book, Faulkner tells her story with honesty, humour, and a sharp way of seeing the truth about life in Italy. She shares both the good and the bad, showing what it's really like to live in another country. Her experiences warn others about the challenges they might face but also help people who have gone through similar struggles feel less alone. Through this book, she wants to show the hidden difficulties of dealing with Italian rules, gender roles, and the unexpected ups and downs of love and loss.

Married to Italy is not just for those who have lived there or experienced its infamous bureaucratic hurdles. It is a book for anyone who has ever:

Dreamed of starting a new life in a foreign country

Been caught in a legal battle that defied all logic

Fallen for someone who turned out to be not quite as charming as they first seemed

Struggled to find their voice in a system that often silences those who need justice the most

If you have ever been captivated by the idea of moving to Italy, Married to Italy is the reality check you need before booking that one-way ticket. It exposes the stark contrast between the fairytale and the facts, reminding readers that while Italy may be a land of beauty, its inner workings often resemble a tragic comedy.

On the other hand, if you've already found yourself trapped in a web of legal or bureaucratic chaos, this book will be a much-needed companion, one that reassures you that you are not alone. With humour, honesty, and an unbreakable spirit, Faulkner turns her trials into a story that is as empowering as it is entertaining.

If you're looking for a book that will make you laugh, think, and perhaps reconsider that romantic Italian escape, Married to Italy is your perfect read. Lucinda Faulkner's journey is proof that even in the most frustrating and bewildering moments, there is always room for humour, hope, and a really good glass of wine.
