Description:The original translation of Casanova’s exploits, once published in a two-volume case edition, is now released by Holloway House Publishing as "The Many Loves of Casanova" – in a single trade edition size that is bound to charm readers with the adventures of the original "man who so loved women." Translated by Welsh novelist Arthur Machen, today’s illustrated edition focuses on the stories of Casanova’s loves. His ruminations and social vignettes of 18th century European life are refined into short prefaces between the chapters, allowing readers to ride from one sexual intrigue to the next. Readers will revel in the sexual restraint of "Bathing Girl," Casanova’s relationship with a young peasant who believes Casanova is capable of raising buried treasure from her family’s home. They will follow the mystery of "The Transvestite," as Casanova falls in love with a feminine singer who claims to be a male castrato under his feminine attire, a claim Casanova is determined to refute. None will resist his intoxicating affair with "The Ambassador’s Mistress," a worldly woman who slips into his Venetian room every night dressed as a woman of the cloister… Thirty other stories follow, most with a moral behind their zesty and uninhibited exploits. Over the course of some 450 pages, they track the progress of a man studying for a career in the church until his passions lead him in other directions – so much so that after drinking to brace himself for his first sermon, he passes out right in the pulpit!We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
