Iris Origo was an Anglo-American author and biographer who lived much of her life in Italy. A Chill in the Air is drawn from her diaries kept during the early years of the Second World War in Fascist Italy, offering a vivid, first-hand account of daily life, political tension, and the gathering storm of conflict. Origo's audiobooks and books are treasured for their elegant prose and their intimate perspective on one of history's most turbulent periods.
