A #1
New York Times
Bestseller!
"Funny, insightful, illuminating . . ."
—
The Boston Globe
Twelve years ago,
Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil
exploded into a monumental success, residing a record-breaking four years on the
bestseller list (longer than any work of fiction or nonfiction had before) and turning John Berendt into a household name.
The City of Falling Angels
is Berendt's first book since
Midnight
, and it immediately reminds one what all the fuss was about. Turning to the magic, mystery, and decadence of Venice, Berendt gradually reveals the truth behind a sensational fire that in 1996 destroyed the historic Fenice opera house. Encountering a rich cast of characters, Berendt tells a tale full of atmosphere and surprise as the stories build, one after the other, ultimately coming together to portray a world as finely drawn as a still-life painting.
