Download or read book Venice for Lovers written by Louis Begley and published by Open Road + Grove/Atlantic. This book was released on 2009-11-20 with total page 123 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With an unforgettable novella and brilliant essays, a writing couple delivers “a love letter to an ancient Italian city by the sea” (The Washington Post). 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 Begley’s brilliant literary essay on the city’s place within world literature demonstrates: Henry James, Marcel Proust, and Thomas Mann were all illustrious predecessors. “Refreshing and delightful. Begley and Muhlstein manage to combine in one volume the innocent ardor of a first-time visitor and the seasoned appreciation of longtime lovers.” —Don George, National Geographic Traveler

Book excerpt: The world's great cities are showcased in this exciting National Geographic series presenting must-do neighborhood itineraries, insider tips for visiting recommended sights, and indispensable information for the most enjoyable urban adventure imaginable. National Geographic Walking Guide Venice leads readers through the six districts (sestieri) of Venice, each with its own specific identity. Overlooking the Grand Canal, San Marco and San Polo are the ancient administrative and trading centers. North of San Polo, Cannaregio was the old Jewish quarter; Santa Croce, to the west, has the most beautiful churches in Venice. Dorsoduro, southwest of San Marco, is known for its art galleries, while Castello, to the east, was the city's maritime center. The six chapters each open with an introduction followed by a map of the itinerary highlighting the route's stages and providing detailed information on the various sites. Each visit to the district is supplemented by an in-depth "In Detail" section, aimed at an important site; a "This Is Venice" section, which provides information on a characteristic element of the neighborhood; and one "The Best" section, which groups the best sites by theme. CUSTOMIZED TOURS: The guide provides nine tailor-made tours, including everything from shopping, food and wine tastings, and evenings at the opera; admiring the facades of the buildings reflecting on the Grand Canal; day or weekend timelines to help you get the most out of a destination; and highlights for art lovers, good food and wine, and travellng with children.

Download or read book If Venice Dies written by Salvatore Settis and published by House of Anansi. This book was released on 2016-09-10 with total page 151 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the tradition of Jane Jacobs’ The Death and Life of Great American Cities comes an urgent plea from internationally renowned art historian Salvatore Settis to preserve Venice’s future. What is Venice worth? To whom does this urban treasure belong? Venetians are increasingly abandoning their hometown — there’s now only one resident for every 140 visitors — and Venice’s fragile fate has become emblematic of the future of historic cities everywhere as it capitulates to tourists and those who profit from them. In If Venice Dies, a fiery blend of history and cultural analysis, internationally renowned art historian Savatore Settis argues that “hit-and-run” visitors are turning landmark urban settings into shopping malls and theme parks. He warns that Western civilization’s prime achievements face impending ruin from mass tourism and global cultural homogenization. This is a passionate plea to secure Venice’s future, written with consummate authority, wide-ranging erudition, and élan.
