The City of Falling Angels

John Berendt

Discover the magic, mystery, and decadence of Venice in this captivating book. Explore the city's rich history, art, and architecture as its architectural treasures crumble before your eyes. Join the author as he takes you on a journey through the aftermath of a devastating fire that destroyed the historic Fenice opera house. Meet a cast of vivid characters, each with their own intriguing story to tell, including a Venetian poet whose death prompts a murder investigation, a family of American expatriates who've lost their palace after generations of ownership, a group of high-society Americans fighting to preserve Venice's art and architecture, and many more. With suspenseful storytelling and atmosphere in spades, this book paints a portrait of Venice as finely crafted as a still-life painting.
