Edizioni Lina Brun

Edizioni LinaBrun is a small independent publishing house founded in 1999.
Currently, 120 paper books have been published and they are divided into Essays, Stories and Kids.

The Essays deal with historical-artistic and food and wine subjects of the Piedmontese territory: Savoy residences, aristocratic palaces, historical gardens, wine, truffles, salt, traditional Piedmontese recipes and historic Italian cafés. Currently there are versions in Italian, French, English and German.
The book series named “Dove è bello vivere” is dedicated to some of the most beautiful small villages and towns that offer the best life quality and collaboration among people, therefore villages where it is good to live. E-books are also available and can be purchased directly on the website and Kindles can be found on Amazon.

The Stories are tales for all ages and some of them are bilinguals with facing text.

Kids. I really like observing what surrounds me and telling it to children: it makes me younger and it reminds me of the good years of teaching in elementary school, middle school and high school.
The books for children are little stories, often real, that have children and animals as protagonists. There are multilingual versions and recently a new book series has been launched: JUST ENGLISH 4 CHILDREN. It is about books written entirely in English with downloadable audio, which can be also used by parents and teachers that know a little English. Interactive e-books are also available.

There is also a huge news: ENGLISH IS A GAME – Play with me. It is a very innovative learning English method for children from 2/3 years old that can be used in kindergarten or at home with your family and children. This project will be available from January and
there will be an assigned blog with tips for use.

Nice to meet you, I’m Lina Brun.

I am an expert tourist guide:
groups and individuals, company guests, tourists, groups of pilgrims and groups of students.

I like reading, I like art, history, music, nature and
everything that makes life beautiful.

A perfect day is one that I spend in contact with nature,
at the seaside or even better in the mountains,
walking with nice people who share the same passions as me.

I will be happy to show you my region, PIEDMONT, with its landscapes, artworks, Savoy residences and gastronomic excellences (typical dishes, wine, truffles). Take a look at my essays on this topic.
I will show you in particular the city in which I live, Turin, making you find out its numerous characteristics:

  • – history
  • – the beautiful palaces and buildings
  • – the churches (in the cathedral there is the Holy Shroud)
  • – Don Bosco’s places

But I will also show you the historic places where you can savour a bicerin, like the King, Cavour and other famous people did back in the 19th century.

With me you can find out wonderful hidden corners that alone you could never find.
Turin is a very beautiful city also by night and it really becomes magical.
I also suggest you urban trekking to explore the city and the hills.

Tour guide: guide certificate n. 11 released from the Region of Piedmont on September 13th, 1889.
