Codrescu,
Andrei. Casanova in Bohemia (New York: Free Press, c2002) 321 p.
The
aged Giacomo Casanova, Chevalier de Seingalt, retired to Dux Castle
in Bohemia. Here under the patronage of Count Waldstein, he took the
position of Librarian. Apart from reading and providing reading
material for fellow servants we do not see Casanova's library work.
Instead he enjoys life, as is his wont, philosophizes, and writes his
memoirs.
