Specificatii
In Donna Leon's Commissario Guido
Brunetti series, the Venetian inspector has been called on to
investigate many things, from shocking murders to petty crimes. But
in The Waters of Eternal Youth, the 25th novel in this celebrated
series, Brunetti finds himself drawn into a case that may not be a
case at all. Fifteen years ago, a teenage girl fell into a canal
late at night. Unable to swim, she went under and started to drown.
She survived thanks to a nearby man, an alcoholic, who heard her
splashes and pulled her out, though not before she suffered
irreparable brain damage that left her unable to learn or mature.
The drunk man claimed he saw her thrown into the canal, but the
following day he couldn't remember a thing. Now, at a fundraising
dinner for a Venetian charity, a wealthy and aristocratic patroness
- the girl's grandmother - asks Brunetti if he will investigate.
Brunetti's not sure what to do. If a crime was committed, the
criminal surely would be protected by the statute of limitations.
But out of a mixture of curiosity, pity, and a willingness to
fulfill the wishes of a guilt-wracked older woman, Brunetti agrees.
Brunetti soon finds himself unable to let the case rest, if indeed
there is a case. Awash in the rhythms and concerns of contemporary
Venetian life, from historical preservation to housing to new waves
of African migrants to the haunting story of a woman trapped in a
damaged perpetual childhood, The Waters of Eternal Youth is an
exquisite novel, perfect to mark twenty-five years of this beloved
series.
