The lost diary of Venice : a novel / Margaux DeRoux. by DeRoux, Margaux. Ballantine Books, 2020. Call #: FICTION DER Subjects Diaries -- Fiction.   Palimpsests -- Fiction.   Bookbinding -- Repairing -- Fiction.   Secrecy -- Fiction.   Artists -- Fiction.   Venice (Italy) -- Fiction.   Connecticut -- Fiction. ISBN:  9781984819482 (hc.) Edition:  1st ed. Description:  328 p. ; 25 cm. Summary:  "In the wake of her father's death, Rose Newlin finds solace in her work as a book restorer. Then, one rainy Connecticut afternoon, a struggling painter appears at her door. William Lomazzo brings with him a sixteenth-century treatise on art, which Rose quickly identifies as a palimpsest: a document written over a hidden diary that had purposely been scraped away. Yet the restoration sparks an unforeseen challenge when William--a married man--and Rose experience an instant, unspoken attraction. Five centuries earlier, Renaissance-era Venetians find themselves at the mercy of an encroaching Ottoman fleet preparing for a bloody war. Giovanni Lomazzo, a portrait artist grappling with tragedy, discovers that his vision is fading with each passing day. Facing the possibility of a completely dark world, Gio begins to document his every encounter, including what may be his final artistic feat: a commission to paint the enchanting courtesan of one of Venice's most powerful military commanders. Soon, however, Gio finds himself enraptured by a magnificent forbidden love. Spellbound by Gio's revelations, Rose and William are soon forced to confront the reality of their own mystifying connection."--Publisher. Genre:  Historical fiction. Love stories.
