“The largest, most beautiful impression of my life,” wrote Jean Lorrain to his mother from Venice in 1898. Autumn had arrived, when twilight falls over the city in decorated decadence, crowded with melancholy. Several texts of unique beauty, filled with both poetry and knowledge emerged through his travel. Those that we meet here offer us a vision of Venice that is notably realistic but also fascinating, emotional, and sentimental. Some pages include the cries of anguish from the city's patrons as its architecture deteriorates and is abandoned, while other pages forget about the ruins, causing exquisite sensations and spirits to appear. This book has been described as “the brightest praise” ever written about Venice.

Book Description Encuadernación de tapa blanda. Condition: Nuevo. «La más grande, la más bella impresión de mi vida», escribía el dandy Jean Lorrain a su madre en 1898 desde Venecia. Había llegado en otoño, cuando la luz crepuscular transforma la ciudad en un decorado decadente, lleno de melancolía. De sus cuatro estancias surgieron varios textos de singular belleza, repletos tanto de poesía como de conocimiento. En los que aquí reunimos nos ofrece una visión de la Venecia de entre siglos notablemente realista, aunque también fascinada, emocionada y sentimental. En algunas páginas lanza un grito angustiado por la posible desaparición de la ciudad, víctima de su deterioro arquitectónico y su abandono (como demuestra la caída del Campanile en 1902); en otras, se olvida de esa misma ruina y brotan todas las sensaciones que provoca en su espíritu exquisito. Anna de Noailles las calificó como «el más brillante elogio» de Venecia que se había escrito. Seller Inventory # PER113UDL
