Reviews
"These memoirs are compulsive reading... they are the work not only of a highly accomplished seducer but of a literary artist of the highest talents."--J. H. Plumb, New York Times Book Review, "Trask expertly rendered this text into English in 1966, and his is the English version to read... Compulsively readable... Certainly, few books better convey the sheer, exuberant joy of being alive and young than these reminiscences." -- Michael Dirda, New York Review of Books, Trask's exemplary translation... makes the real Casanova accessible in English... as strange, as diverse, as compelling as fiction., Trask has written a version in an English fully contemporary yet remarkably Italian in sensibility. With admirable restraint and refinement, he has conveyed the zest and sensuous delight of the original., ""Trask expertly rendered this text into English in 1966, and his is the English version to read...
