Published by Robert Laffont and written by a team of French and Italian authors, this book is one of the most comprehensive ever dedicated to Venice. Divided in four sections – history, walks, anthology, and dictionary – it brings together two complimentary viewpoints. On the one hand, the Francophone contributors, mesmerized by the myth; on the other, the Italian, who experience the daily life of a complex city. Book launch with presentation by the publisher, the two editors and four of the authors. A reading will follow. Cocktail by Rosa Salva. Free entry.
