Back Again to Paris - Giovanni Giacomo Casanova - Bog

Bag om Back Again to Paris

""Back Again To Paris"" is a memoir by the infamous adventurer and seducer, Jacques Casanova. The book is a continuation of his earlier memoirs and covers his return to Paris in the mid-18th century, after being exiled from the city for his scandalous behavior. In this book, Casanova recounts his experiences in Paris, including his encounters with various women, his gambling escapades, and his involvement in political intrigue. He also provides insight into the social and cultural climate of Paris during this time, with detailed descriptions of the city's architecture, fashion, and customs.Throughout the book, Casanova's wit and charm are on full display, as he regales readers with his tales of adventure and romance. However, the book also reveals a more introspective side of Casanova, as he reflects on his past mistakes and the consequences of his actions.Overall, ""Back Again To Paris"" is a fascinating and entertaining read, offering a glimpse into the life of one of history's most notorious figures.I had two objects in speaking thus: I wanted to frighten him and to make him jealous of me. I felt certain that a man in a passion of jealousy would be quite confused, and I hoped his play would suffer accordingly, and that I should not have the mortification of losing a hundred louis to his superior play, though I won the fifty louis of the wager.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
