Nick Bantock s illustrated novel, The Venetian s Wife, is part love story, part mystery, and part ghostly tale and an altogether bewitching brew of sensuality and lost treasures. Thoroughly bored with her job at the local museum, Sarah heads to the gallery to take another look at that new drawing, the one she can t stop thinking about, the one of the Hindu god Shiva, who dances...That s when it all begins. The next day, an email message brings her a job offer: to find the few remaining pieces of a 15thcentury adventurer s renowned collection of Indian sculptures. Her employer, curiously, wishes to communicate only by computer. She has no idea who he is or why he wants her. But other mysteries soon preoccupy her, such as the meaning of an enigmatic illuminated manuscript and the sensual transformation that seems to be overtaking her. Through her quirkily decorated diary and the artful email exchanges between Sara and her mentor, Nick Bantock has conjured up a richly illustrated tale of a relentless quest, an amorous legacy, and the resonating power of art a lush, romantic adventure of the soul that tantalizes the reader to the last line.?
