Historical | Non-Fiction Memoir

"These memoirs are compulsive reading... they are the work not only of a highly accomplished seducer but of a literary artist of the highest talents." -- J. H. Plumb, New York Times Book Review

In volumes 5 and 6, Casanova brings his flight from the Inquisitor's prison in Venice to a happy conclusion. Exiled from Venice, he goes to Munich and Paris, where he establishes himself as a cabalist, makes a fortune in Holland, helps start the French State Lottery, goes on to Switzerland where he meets Voltaire.
