Negative Positive
Title: Venice lite and less
Review: With part of the main topic being Venice,I had hoped for more information about the city; instead of too much information about a very wide variety of characters very loosely related to the central idea.Good to fair is my best appraisal.The book started off well and seemed to promise more than it could deliver in the end.The first half was far better than the end.Comparing to Under The Tuscon Sun,The City of Falling Angels(both nonfiction) -falls quite a bit;unable to sustain real long term interest,with light weight characters who offer no real intrigue or development.The taste of Venice which the author offered was weak and without the texture I desired.
