How about a New Year resolution to live life more slowly? In 1999 four Italian towns signed a pledge to transform themselves into havens against the frenzy of modern life. The movement is called Citta Slow.
Martha discusses with two of its advocates who live here in Britain, Wendy Fogarty who’s been preparing a slow breakfast and Carl Honore, author of In Praise of Slow, along with Romanian pianist, Anda Anastasescu about how a worldwide movement is challenging the cult of speed.
