Venetian Mirrors

Venetian Mirrors takes the reader on a meandering tour, whose path traces a poetic portrait of Venice-as mediated through the history of its representations-in which multiple voices and layers intermingle: fact and fiction, waking consciousness and dream, the past and the present, the living and the dead. This imaginal itinerary also presents, as much through its form as through its content, a sustained reflection on reflection-hence, on the relation between original and image-and on the inseparable, if tense, bond between nature and art, which that city so consummately exemplifies.
