Synopsis

ILLUSTRATED - Casanova, one of the world’s greatest lovers – and scoundrels – is dying. It is now, during his final waning days, in a series of conversations with his idolizing grandnephew, that he tells his greatest tales.  CASANOVA, CURATOR OF MEMORIES is a journey through time, memory, and art as the once legendary rogue teaches his young charge about romance, loss, bravery, sacrifice, and the profound wonders of love.  Along the way Casanova bids farewell to his beloved Venice; teaches his niece, Lorenzo’s mother, to once again embrace life; comes to terms with a disapproving God; and, like Casanovas before and after him, reveals the greatest lessons he has learned from his love of art … and the art of love. Written by noted art historian and museum Curator Preston Metcalf, CASANOVA, CURATOR OF MEMORIES is a tour de force journey through some of the world’s most celebrated masterpieces and how they teach us about love and what it truly means to be human.
