This is a great story - Berendt slowly draws you in by cleverly drawing the cast of quirky characters in sleepy, steamy Savannah, then springs the plot. The first half of the book feels like a set of short stories, as each chapter describes one of the key characters and sets the scene for their prejudices and behaviour in the second half (the trial).

Midnight in the Garden of Good & Evil is up there with To Kill a Mockingbird. Brilliant.

If anything it proved what a poisoned chalice Venice is-forced to suffer the overbearing American 'art ... Read More:
