Description - Night Letters by Robert Dessaix
Winner of the Australian Literature Society Gold Medal
Shortlisted for the Miles Franklin Literary Award
Every night for twenty nights in a hotel room in Venice, an Australian man recently diagnosed with an incurable disease writes a letter home to a friend. In these letters, against a rich background of earlier journeys in literature, with Dante as his imagined guide, he reflects on what it means to live a good life in the face of death.
