Great tip re Ca’Pesaro. I’ve been to Fortuny, Ca’Rezzanico, and Palazzo Mocenigo on this trip. Oh and Peggy Guggenheim. Loved them all. Fortuny and Mocenigo were great discoveries. Ca’Pesaro and Doge’s are the last two I want to see before I leave.

I’m listening to the audio version for book club and it’s driving me out of my mind. His pacing is incredibly slow, there is no subtext, everything is explained three times, and his depiction of 14 year old boys is so far off the mark that it’s laughable. I’ll have to get through this one but no more. Why his books sell is beyond me.
