- Summary:
-
This book takes you on a stroll over bridges and under cloisters, following Venetian locals and visitors as they pass through centuries. These verses capture the spirit and soul of the City of Water - a city so full of poetry itself. Courtney's pen weaves together fine threads of past and present, fact and fiction, into a rich tapestry of images, a Carne Vale of characters: artists, muses and mariners alike. Venetian Voices is a book to cherish, and to inflame our love affair with Venice. A prize listener for the distinctive inflection of word and voice, Courtney has defined atmospheres, historical ambiances, striking personalities with the confident brushstrokes of a master painter.
