More about the book
The language and way of thinking of the Venetians set them aside from the rest of Italy. They are an island people, linked to the sea and to the tides, rather than the land. The moon rules Venice, Ackroyd writes 'It is built on ocean shells and ocean ground; it has the aspect of infinity'.
