Venice for Lovers by Louis Begley, Anka Muhlstein
English | 2009 | ASIN: B0097DE6HO | 236 pages | ePUB | 2.5 MB

Venice for Lovers is a memorable collaboration by two fine stylists who have fashioned their own personal homages to Venice, one with a novella, the other with a personal essay. Every year for all the thirty they have been married, Begley and Muhlstein have escaped to Venice to write. In her contribution to the book, Muhlstein charmingly describes how she and her husband dine at the same restaurant every night for years on end, and how becoming friends with restaurateurs has been an unsurpassed means of getting to know the city and its inhabitants, far from the tourists in San Marco Square. In his short novella, Begley writes a story of falling in love with"and in"Venice. His twenty-year-old protagonist, enamored with an older, far worldlier woman of twenty-seven, is lured by her to the City of Water, only to be unceremoniously dumped and left to fend for himself after a brief rendezvous. But he discovers a lasting love for Venice itself"not an uncommon romance, as Begleys brilliant literary essay on the citys place within world literature demonstrates: Henry James, Marcel Proust, and Thomas Mann were all illustrious predecessors.
