FLEM, LYDIA. Casanova: The Man Who Really Loved Women.
Farrar, Straus and Giroux, New York: 1997. Softcover. Very good condition. Poet, priest, scholar, philosopher, musician, moralist, and magician, Casanova was also Europes most notorious love. In this fascinating interpretation of his History of My Life, Lydia Flem discerns the pattern that enabled a sickly Venetian baby to become the audacious, gallant man behind the legend, who flung himself into experience without asking for anything in return but that most scandalous of all rewards - pleasure. Includes an Index. Translated into English from the French by Catherine Temerson. ¶ 256 pages.
Offered for US$ 10.50 by: Ad Infinitum Books - Book number: 6304X2
