4.9/5 (16064 ratings)

Description:: Jean-Pierre Petitfeu and his wife, Claire, have spent five days each year in Venice, ever since they lost their ten-year-old son in a boating accident. Each year they take their walks and eat in their favorite restaurants, swept away again and again by the beauty and history of Venice. On the first day of their twelfth visit, Jean-Pierre discovers, hidden behind the cornice of a wall in their room, an old manuscript, the memoir of a man named Giovanni Pietro Pofoco, who lived in Venice at the turn of the sixteenth century. Rich with death and passion, Pofoco's memoir reads like an adventure story full of sex and violence, with idealism at war with the corrupt establishment. Presumably Pofoco died in the early fifteen hundreds, although as we read more of this remarkable story, we may come to doubt that he died at all.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
