Such a great story! Despite the reputation of being a courtesan there is nothing offensive about this book. A vivid story of survival at the time of the sack of Rome by barbarians, it has stayed in my mind weeks after having read it. Vividly detailing life in 16th century Venice, it is a story of friendship and deception with a surprising resolution.
