I am a faithful Brunetti and I saddens me from book to book in recent years: it is increasingly ill, we feel that Donna Leon is running out of breath and it makes the filling: minimalist plot and drawn fetched, psychologizing verbiage sometimes incomprehensible (no one reads from the publisher?) What discourage unconditional reader I suis.Heureusement, there Venice and endearing characters Brunetti and Vianello but rather find them less often but in better shape.
