Perfect for both lovers of Venice and lovers of books, this unique guide takes you step by step around the city of Venice in the footsteps of the writers who lived there and visited. See where they lived, ate, drink, and played. Find out where the parties were held, details of their illicit encounters, and where the patrician families of Venice's famous Golden Book gathered in their literary salons, which after the Republic of Venice ended were continued in the homes of American society heiresses. This is a book to be savoured slowly, from the city's cafes and bars where writers such as Patricia Highsmith and Ernest Hemingway went, or from the comfort of your own living room as you let Venice feed your imagination, just as the writers did themselves. Read about their lives and read their words through their novels and memoirs, poetry, travelogues, travel guides and biographies. This unique travel guide tells of literary Venice within the story of the city, and places early Venetian women writers firmly within the Venetian literary canon. It also includes a list of all works mentioned and suggested reading throughout the book.
