The Many Loves of Casanova: Uncensored Personal Memoirs of Jacques Casanovaby Giacomo Casanova , Bill Edwards, Monte RogersISBN 0870679414 (0-87067-941-4)
Softcover, Holloway House Pub Co

› Find signed collectible books: 'The Many Loves of Casanova: Uncensored Personal Memoirs of Jacques Casanova'Book summary:The original translation of Casanovas exploits, once published in a two-volume case edition, is now released by Holloway House Publishing as "The Many Loves of Casanova" in a single trade edition size that is bound to charm readers with the adventures of the original "man who so loved women."
Translated by Welsh novelist Arthur Machen, todays illustrated edition focuses on the stories of Casanovas loves. His ruminations and social vignettes of 18th century European life are refined into short prefaces between the chapters, allowing readers to ride from one sexual intrigue to the next.
Readers will revel in the sexual restraint of "Bathing Girl," Casanovas relationship with a young peasant who believes Casanova is capable of raising buried treasure from her familys home. They will follow the mystery of "The Transvestite," as Casanova falls in love with a feminine singer who claims to be a male castrato under his feminine attire, a claim Casanova is determined to refute. None will resist his intoxicating affair with "The Ambassadors Mistress," a worldly woman who slips into his Venetian room every night dressed as a woman of the cloister&
Thirty other stories follow, most with a moral behind their zesty and uninhibited exploits. Over the course of some 450 pages, they track the progress of a man studying for a career in the church until his passions lead him in other directions so much so that after drinking to brace himself for his first sermon, he passes out right in the pulpit!

› Find signed collectible books: 'Of Mistresses, Tigresses and Other Conquests'Book summary:Casanova was the most notorious lover in history. From seducing a nun in an elaborate boudoir, watched by her lover, to frolicking in a bath with a beautiful girl and an eccentric old lady to trick her of her jewels, his memoir describes his amorous encounters in intimate detail. United by the theme of love, the writings in the "Great Loves" series span over two thousand years and vastly different worlds. Readers will be introduced to love's endlessly fascinating possibilities and extremities: romantic love, platonic love, erotic love, gay love, virginal love, adulterous love, parental love, filial love, nostalgic love, unrequited love, illicit love, not to mention lost love, twisted and obsessional love...

The Story of My Lifeby Stephen Sartarelli, Sophie Hawkes, Giacomo Casanova , Gilberto PizzamiglioISBN 0140439153 (0-14-043915-3)
Softcover, Penguin Group USA

› Find signed collectible books: 'The Story of My Life'Book summary:Seducer, gambler, necromancer, swindler, Good Samaritan, spy, swashbuckler, self-made gentleman, entrepreneur, wit, poet, translator, philosopher, and general bon vivant, Giacomo Casanova was not only the most notorious lover the Western world has known, but also a storyteller of the first order. Since he lived a life richer and stranger than most fictions, the tale of his own adventures is his most compelling story, but his memoir remained-at twelve volumes-unfinished at the time of his death. In these selections culled from authoritative French texts are all the highlights of Casanova's life: his youth in Venice as a precocious ecclesiastic; carousing and dabbling in the occult; imprisonment and thrilling escape; travels and encounters with major literary figures and world leaders; and, of course, many amorous conquests, ranging from noblewomen to nuns to cobblers' daughters, all of them willing partners in the adventures of his life.[via]
The first new translation since the 1960s, this Penguin Classics edition will provide readers with the most famous episodes as well as the overall shape of a monumental work in one beautiful, unique volume.
