About the Book

Venecia es la ciudad a la que siempre volvemos y la que todo el mundo quiere visitar; y todo el mundo lo desea tanto que acaban creando Venecias en diferentes lugares del mundo real, o de la fantasía.

Pero aquí hablamos de Venecia real. A través de unos cuantos paseos que abarcan la piazza de San Marco (la única piazza de Venecia), Rialto, los diferentes sestieri o barrios de la ciudad, Murano, el cementerio, el palacio Ducal, los teatros y las huellas de España (y Granada) en la ciudad, hacemos un recorrido por el arte, la cultura, la historia y el presente de esta ciudad, que, como dice Marco Polo en "Las ciudades invisibles", es de la que se habla cuando se hablar de cualquier otra. A fuer de ser única, todas las ciudades acaban teniendo un poquito de ella.
Por eso también hay capítulos dedicados a lo que el veneciano, el lenguaje hablado en la ciudad y los personajes de la misma, han legado a nuestro idioma (y en muchos casos, a otros); otro dedicado a los inventos, conceptos, eventos y aparatos que aparecieron por primera vez en esta ciudad en la época dorada en la que fue el epítome de la ingeniería, o en la época de plata cuando fue el centro de la innovación en el arte, de la política y de la economía.
También trata de responder a preguntas que te has hecho siempre. ¿Dónde se aparcan las barcas particulares? ¿Y dónde echan gasolina o gasoil o lo que gasten (podrían ser algas maceradas), o guano de gaviota? ¿Qué hubiera sido de Venecia si no la hubiera disuelto Napoleón a finales del siglo XIX?
En resumen, se trata de un libro para una persona curiosa, que quiere andar por una ciudad entendiendo lo que ve, y viendo lo que entiende. Para quien quiere ir por primera vez, o vuelve cada año. Para quien puede permitirse ir en taxi del aeropuerto al Cipriani, y para quien toma el autobús hasta piazzale Roma y se aloja en un bloque de apartamentos de la Giudecca. En resumen, es el libro de Venecia que a mi me gustaría haber leído, y que es posible que tú estés buscando.

Este libro trata de aclarar el por qué de Venecia, pero también el qué, el cómo, el cuando, y el dónde. A través de una serie de paseos por la ciudad, conoceremos la historia, el arte, la cultura, y también donde tomarse el verdadero Spritz y como pedirlo.

En esta edición en papel, se rinde homenaje a Aldo Manuzio, el impresor más famoso de Venecia, usando un tipo de letra llamado Bembo inspirado en los que se usaban en su imprenta.
