Love in Venice – a novel still sought after by readers and a base for the film Garden of Earthly Delights.
The life of Bea, an art historian working at the National Gallery in London, intertwines with that of Luis, a shipbuilding engineer, to bring happiness, fulfillment and… despair. Like Dante’s Beatrice, Bea, fascinated by the mysterious painting of Hieronymus Bosch, guides Luis through the world of feelings and meanings of symbols. A touching story, violent feelings and their surprising ties to timeless art… A quiet drama unfolds in the sleepy atmosphere of Venice.
