具体描述
Alessandra Cecchi is not quite fifteen when her father, a prosperous cloth merchant, brings a young painter back from northern Europe to decorate the chapel walls in the family’s Florentine palazzo. A child of the Renaissance, with a precocious mind and a talent for drawing, Alessandra is intoxicated by the painter’s abilities.
But their burgeoning relationship is interrupted when Alessandra’s parents arrange her marriage to a wealthy, much older man. Meanwhile, Florence is changing, increasingly subject to the growing suppression imposed by the fundamentalist monk Savonarola, who is seizing religious and political control. Alessandra and her native city are caught between the Medici state, with its love of luxury, learning, and dazzling art, and the hellfire preaching and increasing violence of Savonarola’s reactionary followers. Played out against this turbulent backdrop, Alessandra’s married life is a misery, except for the surprising freedom it allows her to pursue her powerful attraction to the young painter and his art.
The Birth of Venus is a tour de force, the first historical novel from one of Britain’s most innovative writers of literary suspense. It brings alive the history of Florence at its most dramatic period, telling a compulsively absorbing story of love, art, religion, and power through the passionate voice of Alessandra, a heroine with the same vibrancy of spirit as her beloved city.

读后感
一下是我看完书后写得一篇日志： 今天凌晨一两点多我才睡觉，终于把觊觎已久的书看完了。 心里真可以说是百感交集。 因为看书的速度太快，我又比较疲劳，看的时候并没有太多感慨。 然而看完整本书，我躺在床上，回想着书中的情节故事，竟然哭了。 我没想到我会哭，而且很想嚎啕...
评分吸引我买<维纳斯的诞生>的并非简介，而是书上的标签.虽然简介写得很是花哨，比如私生子，还有娈童者什么，不过真正的原因是推荐它的是纽约时报的畅销书。我先前谈过的谭恩美的小说也曾经是这里的座上客，在我的感觉中，时报的推荐书，和获得了中国的矛盾文学奖一样，总是会吸引...
评分一本书如果涉及文艺复兴和佛罗伦萨，再用波提切利的“维纳斯的诞生”来装帧，那我丧失抵抗力实在是再自然不过的事。 买这本小说《维纳斯的诞生：佛罗伦萨的爱与死》时，我大致只知道是书的内容是关于文艺复兴时期一位佛罗伦萨女子的成长和爱情故事。 先来看看书扉页上的简介...
评分非常具有艺术气息的一本书 让我喜欢的不行 他们的爱情 他们的对于艺术的执着 让我感动 让我羡慕 或许这两样东西 是我 着一生都会去欣赏 但不一定会作的让自己满意的 其实很羡慕生活在那样的一个时代 那样一个国都 人人都崇尚艺术 或许我也会想那些疯狂的艺术家...
用户评价
Dunant shows her love for Florence, as the city---all its landscapes and sounds and smells lived vividly through the novel. I do enjoy the metaphorical "Birth" of our lady in the novel but the ending was just, rushed. Pretty engaging read.
评分一段文艺复兴时期狗血的爱情故事，但由于糅合了关于宗教，艺术，自由，欲望的描述与讨论，还是有趣，值得一读，但确实不如烟花散尽和神圣的心优雅。
评分结尾并不如我所期待，这确实是一本很engaging的书，如果可以明天写两本书的reviews。
评分。。。。。
评分A superficial story with smooth sentences and some extreme but irrelevant scenes
