Venetian Curiosities by Donna Leon
In a city as ancient as Venice, myths and legends passed down from generation to generation record more than just love or murder. This title recounts some of Venice's most intriguing tales: an elephant brought in for Carnival wreaks havoc upon the city before seeking refuge in a church, and more.
