The first English translation of Vivir Venecia, a memoir by the Argentine living classic Abel Posse.

Novelist, essayist, poet, career diplomat and politician, Posse has written fourteen novels (including the much-acclaimed Daimón and The Dogs of Paradise), seven collections of essays, an extensive journalistic work, numerous short stories and poems.

In A Long Day in Venice, Posse recounts with nostalgia, lucidity and passion his six years spent as a "consul in exile" in the most unusual city on earth. Diplomacy, politics, writing, public and private life, encounters with Jorge Luis Borges, Ernesto Sábato, Abelardo Arias, Alejo Carpentier, Alberto Moravia, Joseph Brodsky and other writers and artists, with Venice as a dazzling backdrop...

An unmissable memoir for lovers of literature and history.
