Donna Leon : The joys and frustrations of being a writer residing in Venice

This interview is a conversation found in the digital archive.

Donna Leon has written crime novels set in the magnificent city of Venice. This interview happened long ago before Italy entered the Eurozone. Donna expressed some fairly attention grabbing facts. 

Didn't put me off going to Venice!

I was reminded of this interview when I was in Cheltenham Hatchards today and there was  a whole table filled with the latest Donna Leon novel.
