ISBN: 9780801856648.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAward-winning translation of the complete memoirs of Casanova available for the first time in paperback.\nIn volumes 5 and 6, Casanova brings his flight from the Inquisitors 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.\nBecause every previous edition of Casanovas Memoirs had been abridged to suppress the authors political and religious views and tame his vivid, often racy, style, the literary world considered it a major event when Willard R. Trasks translation of the complete original text was published in six double volumes between 1966 and 1971. Trasks award-winning translation now appears in paperback for the first time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Johns Hopkins University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44430085685301,"sku":"ByrdShop_0801856647","price":50.84,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780801856648_cd509e93-ee5f-403b-beb2-7fc85d978ddf.jpg?v=1784378063","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/history-of-my-life-vols-5-6-9780801856648","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
