I know "everyone" says this is perhaps the greatest work set in Venice. But I wasn't that thrilled with it. It's such a short read though, that I think everyone can take the time to read it and decide for themselves if it's good or not. No need to depend on a review.

    I dont kniw whether this is the greatest work of "fiction" set in venice, but it is wonderful, and if you read the city of falling angels, you realize it is not fiction and it did not happen in venice, but the funny thing is there is another story told in falling angels that is a very close parallel!
