Venice
A Literary Guide for Travellers
Marie-José GransardPostscript summary
Arranged thematically, around topics such as ‘Faith, Love and Politics’, ‘Lust and Love’, and ‘Death and Mystery’, this book examines the responses of writers, artists and composers to the city: Byron on the Bridge of Sighs, ‘a palace and a prison on each hand’; the teenage Mozart’s visit with his father; and Dickens’ unease in ‘this ghostly city’.
