Book Review of Acqua Alta (Guido Brunetti, Bk 5)

Acqua Alta (Guido Brunetti, Bk 5)
reviewed on
Helpful Score: 2


The Guido Brunetti books are so enjoyable, and Acqua Alta presents a new view of the seasonal difficulties of living in Venice (high tides). Donna Leon not only writes a good detective story, but better than that, she gives such a wonderful perspective of what it is to live in Italy. I love learning of the historical cultural differences throughout Europe.
