Aprašymas

A collection of "entertaining . . . unapologetically opinionated" essays from the New York Times-bestselling author of the Commissario Guido Brunetti novels (The New York Times).

Donna Leon has won legions of fans and waves of critical acclaim for her international bestselling mystery series featuring Venetian Commissario Guido Brunetti--not only for her intricate plots and gripping narratives, but for her insight into the culture, politics, family-life, and history of Venice. But outside of her mystery novels, Leon has also been writing essays on Venetian life and related topics for years.

In My Venice and Other Essays, the best of these essays are more than fifty charming and insightful works ranging in topic from battles over garbage in the canals to the troubles with rehabbing Venetian real estate. Leon shares episodes from her life, explores her love of opera, and recounts tales from in and around her country house in the mountains. With pointed observations and humor, she also explores her family history, her former life in New Jersey, and the idea of the "Italian man."

Sure to please longtime Leon fans as well as anyone who appreciates the wit and wisdom of a master wordsmith, this volume offers "an intriguing glimpse at the strong views of an exceptionally interesting and entertaining novelist" (The Seattle Times).
