Book Capri Dolce Vita - ASSOULINE

Capri, a vacation island from the heyday of the Roman Empire, has long been an exceptional destination full of ancient charm. From physician Axel Munthe, who recommended the clean air to his patients as a cure for bronchitis, to film director Jean-Luc Godard, who made his 1963 movie Contempt, to literary icons, celebrities, poets and the jet set - Capri boasts a rich Mediterranean spirit and style that encompasses a wealth of beauty, from gardens to villas and caves to people walking the bustling piazzetta, where cars are banned and the island's playfulness runs rampant. Capri Dolce Vita is a look at this storied corner of the world through the centuries and a celebration of paradise on earth.
