The book explores the transformation of Florence from a hub of intellectual creativity to a tourist-centric city, often referred to as a "Renaissance Disneyland." It highlights the stark contrast between the vibrant historic center, which thrives on tourism, and the neglected periphery, where residents face overcrowding and deteriorating living conditions. James Miller delves into the challenges Florence faces in adapting to modernity, examining the complexities of its dual existence and the impact on its local population.
