Ebook description
Winning the Hemingway short story contest is the highlight of Jan Clarell’s life. An all expenses paid trip to Venice and dinner at the renowned Harry’s Bar where Hemingway himself hung out with other famous authors—well, who could top that? But Venice serves its own complications and takes Jan in a direction she hadn’t anticipated.Adult-content rating:

Though quite a short tale, the writing here is good. The setting is vivid. Disappointments linger. But any reason to drop into Venice, Italy is welcome. Even if only to hint at things to come.

An interesting story that left me remembering more of its bittersweetness than the elements of passion and sensuality. The emphasis of the setting was well executed.

The encounter between the heroine and the waiter goes too far for a public place like Harry's Bar. He'd have lost his job if the maitre d' had seen him. Still, the twist at the end works.

Sorry but the story didn't quite grip me. Maybe it is too short to develope her character
