Venezia / Los Angeles. I read books.

It’s live! Presenting the new incarnation of my site, #ReadingVenice. Like it says on the tin, it’s about #Venice and its #books, from classics by Henry James to stories by Daphne du Maurier & the latest non-fiction

A page-turner if I ever read one – Truth by the great #PeterTemple is another brilliant recommendation from @jasonnoiles.bsky.social

I absolutely love cima di rapa but it’s true it’s not easy to find outside of Italy!

Where did you get the coriander/cilantro? I can’t seem to find any in Venice…

I guess the #squirrel is Cortina d’Ampezzo’s spirit animal…? The adorable critter is everywhere.

I take it back. What I do regret is not watching that video *before* I went to the event. I would have understood a lot more of what was going on…

I regret nothing. Dragging you into this was the right thing to do. So sue me.

It’s a lovely day in Cortina d’Ampezzo…

Call it a competition and you can create extraordinary drama with just a broom and a slab of stone…

Who knew a novel about artist in AIDS-devastated 1980s #NYC could be hilarious, wild and witty in addition to being poignant? @jasonnoiles.bsky.social that’s who. #PlaysWellWithOthers by #AllanGurganus is truly brilliant.

Neither have I TBH but I still remember some images very clearly, which has to be a sign it was a powerful (and also funny) movie…

Dead Man was so brilliant!
