Title: Unequivically biased
Product review: Unfortunately I bought this book hoping that it would uncover more historical data and the actual works of Veronica Franco translated by a scholar in the field.That was not the case.The author used her college dissertation to make a book on a very important aspect of history when her dissertation would have been best served if it stayed at her college.The author takes liberty to interpret Ms. Franco's works and for the reader it is a logistical nightmare. She first gives her statement as if fact at times which makes the facts (Veronica's actual works) seem secondary. Then she would have the Italian verse, followed by a translation.Wow! do I feel very side tracked here.I wouldn't even accept this for a dissertation!Sorry, it doesn't work out in terms of literary flow, factual data or interesting storyline.
