In 1997, Luisa Cannoli's life changed in an instant. She was injured in a devastating automobile accident which resulted in a seven-year ordeal during which the insurance carrier denied payment and waged a massive legal battle resulting in incredible debts for Cannoli. Cannoli also discovered her home had been invaded, her house and phone lines tapped, and her business clients harassed-all actions she believes were arranged by insurance carriers and defense attorneys, with the assistance of the doctors who treated her.

At 15, Alice's period has not yet arrived. She feels like she will never be a woman. Her friends stuff her bra with cotton balls, her mother forces her to wear improbable outfits to look more womanly and her father uses her to promote his anti-smoking campaign outside school, which makes her the nerdiest girl in town. Alice isn't ready to love someone real, so falls in love with a man on a poster, a man she can't disappoint: Gary Barlow, the 'fat one' of Take That - because not even in her dreams could she be cool enough for Robbie. She will go to extreme lengths to meet him. On this journey, she will make new friends - fans and groupies of the 90s, the 'little people' whose jobs became relevant only during the Boy Band Era and other picturesque characters - until she manages to make her dreams come true - or does she?
The aim of this workbook is to have students understand do exercises on structures that require the use of prepositions in modern Italian. It is intended for any student of Italian, with at least one semester of formal instruction in this language. This second edition includes a completely reworked series of exercises, an extensive description, in English, of the use of Italian prepositions, and a software package (with a CALIS interface for the PC) that not only confirms correct answers, but also gives detailed feedback to unacceptable answers. The content of the workbook includes the following topics: prepositions governed by verbs,nouns, and adjectives; complements (of place, time, manner, etc.); a section contrasting the use of prepositions in Italian and English. Each topic is developed in a series of exercises from the simplest to the most complex.
