The anthology's publication has got me thinking about my favorite books with a Mediterranean setting. Zeno's Conscience would have been here (and it would have been #2 or 3) but although it's set in Trieste, I wouldn't call it a Mediterranean novel. Oh, well.

What are YOUR favorite books set in the Mediterranean? Would you say that Against the Day has a Mediterranean setting? Let me know in the comments!
