Jeff in Venice, Death in Varanasi - Geoff Dyer (Paperback) 05-03-2015 Winner of Bolllinger Everyman Wodehouse Prize 2009 (UK).

Jeff Atman, a journalist, is in Venice to cover the opening of the Biennale. He's expecting to see a load of art, go to a lot of parties and drink too many bellinis. He's not expecting to meet the spellbinding Laura, who will completely transform his few days in the city. So begins a story of erotic love and spiritual learning that will reach its conclusion amidst the ghats of Varanasi.
