If you've seen this post (and I'm still astonished) you'll know I'm off to Venice next month. I may not manage to fit in any Venetian books before I go, but should time permit, what would you recommend? We have lots of Donna Leon's novels, for instance, and I've read Michelle Lovric's The Undrowned Child, (here's Michelle on living and writing Venice for children), but other books with Venice as a setting? What comes to mind?
