Watermark: An Essay on Venice

“Reading Brodsky`s essays is like a conversation with an immensely erudite, hugely entertaining and witty (and often very funny) interlocutor”. (“Wall Street Journal”). “Watermark” is Joseph Brodsky`s witty, intelligent, moving and elegant portrait of Venice. Looking at every aspect of the city, from its waterways, streets and architecture to its food, politics and people, Brodsky captures its magnificence and beauty, and recalls his own memories of the place he called home for many winters, as he remembers friends, lovers and enemies he has encountered. Above all, he reflects with great poetic force on how the rising tide of time affects city and inhabitants alike. “Watermark” is an unforgettable piece of writing, and a wonderful evocation of a remarkable, unique city. Winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature.
