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...
评分一口气吐完了《维纳斯的诞生》。 看完之后又有种莫名的低落，是因为亚历山德拉的死吗？说不上，总之，这不是个完满的结局。但是相比较那些矫揉做作的众多影视作品最终仓促的假完美来说，我宁愿品尝前者凄楚的残缺。 其实，对女主人来说，何谓残缺？就像她说的：现在记忆...
评分 评分很久前看的,不记得女主角的名字了,只记得她对做画的热爱以及她那独特的个性和奇异的梦想,虽然她不拥有美貌,但在她人性的魅力下,我们只觉得她是真正的维纳斯,以自己所能拥有的一切去追求美,这是维纳斯的选择. 然而一旦作出了这样的选择,生命必将是永不平静的25个小时.
评分十二年前的夏天，我在上海某杂志上班。杂志处于筹办期，工作轻松，所以当朋友问是否有兴趣翻译一部以文艺复兴的佛罗伦萨为背景的小说，我毫不犹豫地答应了。现在回想起来，真是汗颜与感激兼而有之。 说汗颜，是因为当初年少轻狂，有着莫名其妙、近乎盲目的自信。我前一年才从...

语言优美 内容也好
评分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.
评分读起来很通顺很舒服，确实有点狗血，结尾安排不太理解
