    Exquisite Adult Entertainment
  

*by E***N on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on June 16, 2005*

The second Marai novel to be published in English by Knopf. If Embers was primarily about friendship, Casanova is primarily about love between man and woman. It is clear that Marai understood people better than most writers of the twentieth century, or in fact any that come to mind. From his writing, one assumes that Marai must have lived, really lived.Casanova is Bolzano is not a young man's (or woman's) book. Its insights speak to those who have lived a good chunk of life already, exploring human ambition and disappointment, youth and age, celebrity and exile, and the complicated relationship of love and sex. It's a mature work from a mature writer.It is also not a historical novel; it has precious little to say about the eighteenth century, or Italy, or even specific characters. The characters in Bolzano are not even "characters," as such-- in fact, the name "Casanova" does not appear once, outside of Marai's introduction (the original Hungarian title is "Vendégjáték Bolzanóban," which also does not mention "Casanova"). It's about people, archetypes.How does it compare with Embers? It starts off a little more slowly (The NYTimes review called it, "a novel of exquisite slowness and refreshing oddity"), but quickly picks up for one classic Marai scene: two people in a room meeting again for the first time in years.

    Sic Transit Romantic Love
  

*by Y***I on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on September 23, 2007*

If a book is new to me, I tend to skip the intros, whether the translator's, author's or critic's.  I picked CAZANOVA up based on a review I scanned, without reading closely.  So it wasn't until near the end of it that I realized "this cannot be a contemporary novel".  One of its characters--and a remarkable one--espoused as fine and powerful a description of true romantic love as exists in literature, I felt.  The sad thing was, in reading it, I knew this was a dated novel.  That notion of romantic love was in that "fine and private place/where none I fear do embrace", as far as I could tell.This novel is about love.  In a sense, it makes a lovely headstone for the notion of romantic love.

    Brilliant
  

*by G***Y on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on August 6, 2012*

This is the first book I read by Sandor Marai and I am so glad I did. The prose is just brilliant, full of memorable passages and this alone is worth reading this work. The storyline seems so authentic even though it is not based on historical facts and one does not want to put the book down. The many pages leading up the ending are the most beautiful, moving and heartwrenching I have ever read.
