The Imperfectionists tells the story of an international English language newspaper based in Rome, from heady beginning to bitter end. Each chapter introduces the reader to a person connected to the newspaper, from obituary writer to would-be stringer to business officer. The cast of characters will be familiar to anyone with a knowledge of the media business or to anyone has toiled as an unappreciated drone for a budget-stingy employer in a job they're not sure they love anymore. Some stories are painfully funny and some are sad--all are memorable.
