It is a memoir of her summer spent in the beautiful Tuscan countryside of Italy, specifically at the Vallombrosa Abbey. The book is a collection of her experiences, thoughts, and observations during her stay at the abbey. She writes about the stunning landscapes, the local people and their way of life, and the religious practices of the monks who live at the abbey. Johnson also shares her personal reflections on life, love, and faith, as well as her encounters with some of the most famous literary figures of the time, such as Robert Browning and Elizabeth Barrett Browning. The book is written in a poetic and descriptive style, with vivid imagery and rich language that transports the reader to the idyllic setting of Vallombrosa.
