Right, so not a book to hunt out at the library, but if it happens to stumble in front of me then don't turn it away?

Probably, but if you have more than 10 books waiting at home I'd say you could even turn it away. It's been about six months and most of the details have slipped my mind so it's a book that will not have a lasting effect.

That's a shame. Venice is a lovely city, and deserves some justice in literature! :) Good review, as always.

Books never stumble in front of me ... It's really unfair!

Have you read The City of Falling Angels by John Berendt? I remember liking that one a lot for a view of Venice.
