CASANOVA IN BOLZANO - MARAI, SANDOR 0.30KG IN SOUTH AFRICA

Paperback. English. Vintage. 2004. In goodcondition. Another rediscovered masterpiece from the Hungarian novelist whose Embersbecame an international bestseller--a sensuous, suspenseful, aphoristic novel about the world's most notorious seducer and the encounter that changes him forever. In 1756 Giacomo Casanova escapes from a Venetian prison and resurfaces in the Italian village of Bolzano. Here he receives an unwelcome visitor: the aging but still fearsome Duke of Parma, who years before had defeated Casanova in a duel over a ravishing girl named Francesca and spared his life on condition that he never see her again.
