Paperback. Condition: New. An inspector rages against the announcement that police HQ is to relocate - the way so many of the city's residents already have - to the mainland. An aspiring author struggles with the inexorable creep of rentalisation that has forced him to share his apartment, and life, with 'global pilgrims'. An ageing painter rails against the liberties taken by tourists, but finds his anger undermined by his own childhood memories of the place. The Venice presented in these stories is a far cry from the 'impossibly beautiful', frozen-in-time city so familiar to the thousands who flock there every year - a city about which, Henry James once wrote, 'there is nothing new to be said.' Instead, they represent the other Venice, the one tourists rarely see: the real, everyday city that Venetians have to live and work in. Rather than a city in stasis, we see it at a crossroads, fighting to regain its radical, working-class soul, regretting the policies that have seen it turn slowly into a theme park, and taking the pandemic as an opportunity to rethink what kind of city it wants to be.

Couverture souple. Condition: Très bon. # Broché : 261 pages # Parution : avril 2010 # Résumé : Gênes, aujourd'hui. Dans la chambre 914 d'un hôtel du centre-ville, un journaliste a déplié un plan, a branché les câbles de son ordinateur portable, de son caméscope et de son iPod pour se repasser les événements du G8 survenus quelques années auparavant, en juillet 2001. Cet été-là, le besoin urgent d'oublier Angela, longtemps aimée et qu'il venait de quitter sans explication, l'avait poussé à couvrir le sommet de Gênes. Rien ne laissait imaginer ce qui allait se produire. Les images qu'il a tournées, et celles qui ont fait le tour du monde depuis, ne cessent de le hanter : la ville barricadée, les concerts, les militants altermondialistes, les black blocs, les blindés et les gaz, les coups de matraque et la mort de Carlo Giuliani, les descentes de police à l'École Diaz, les exactions, la violence sans limite. Comment a-t-on pu basculer ainsi dans l'horreur ? En sourdine et dans le silence de son retour sur place, le narrateur fait entendre le bruit et la fureur des autorités qui, pendant quatre jours, ont bafoué la démocratie. Roberto Ferrucci, né à Venise en 1960, est écrivain, traducteur, journaliste et vidéaste. Traduit de l'italien par Jérôme Nicolas. Préface d'Antonio Tabucchi.
