Libraries might be out of fashion, but they’ll always hold a special place in our heart. And a home library like La Politica Dell'Autore’s doesn’t come around every day. It’s kind of spectacular, with bookcases lining the entire living room, making the space feel a little bit magical. The small terrace, practically overflowing with plants complements that feeling. The kitchen, unfortunately, is a bit basic, but luckily there are plenty of restaurants in Prati, so you’ll just have to go and sample the local cuisine.
