Oxford, I love you - Anna Quaglia - Bog

n Oxford, I love you, Anna Quaglia shares her passion for the town that stole her heart. The "City of Dreaming Spires," as defined by Victorian poet Matthew Arnold, has held a special place in her life since her student days.

After finishing the English course, Anna will find other excuses to return to Oxford: the bond with her beloved city is that strong!
Born in Adria, in the Veneto region of Italy, Anna Quaglia is a teacher, translator, and proofreader. A graduate in foreign languages and literature, as a student, she took advanced English courses in Cheltenham and, of course, Oxford: this is when her love for the British city began.
Throughout her career, she taught Italian as a second language, mainly to Erasmus students, and worked in a translation office. A woman of many facets, Quaglia also had a brief experience as a DJ at a private radio station in Ferrara and then as an employee in an advertising office.
An accomplished author as well, her latest book, Oxford, I love you, was inspired by the emotions and suggestions evoked when she stayed at Magdalen College, Oxford, following in the footsteps of the protagonists of the award-winning 1993 British biographical film, Shadowlands.
