Description

A Long Day in Venice: A Memoir by Abel Posse Abel Posse's memoir is a vivid account of his six years as a "consul in exile" in Venice, a city that served as the backdrop for a fascinating blend of diplomacy, politics, writing, and personal encounters with notable writers and artists. With nostalgia, lucidity, and passion, Posse recounts his experiences, weaving together stories of public and private life. From his relationships with influential figures such as Jorge Luis Borges and Ernesto Sábato to his own pursuits as a novelist, essayist, and poet, Posse's memoir offers a unique glimpse into the life of a complex and multifaceted individual. This unmissable account is a worthwhile read for anyone interested in literature, history, or the intersection of art and politics. Written in English, this paperback edition brings Posse's remarkable story to readers everywhere.
