Description: History of My Life, Paperback by Casanova, Giacomo; Trask, Willard R. (TRN), ISBN 0801856655, ISBN-13 9780801856655, Brand New, Free shipping in the US
Award-winning translation of the complete memoirs of Casanova available for the first time in paperback.
In volumes 7 and 8, Casanova is now close to forty. His various manipulations of the credulous rich have made him rich in turn. His travels take him to France, Germany, Switzerland, and Italy. In Rome he charms the Pope; in Naples, he nearly marries a young woman as licentious as he is himself, but she turns out to be his daughter.
Because every previous edition of Casanovas Memoirs had been abridged to suppress the authors political and religious views and tame his vivid, often racy, style, the literary world considered it a major event when Willard R. Trasks translation of the complete original text was published in six double volumes between 1966 and 1971. Trasks award-winning translation now appears in paperback for the first time.
