A proposito di questo titolo
 In The Violet Paget Library, the books of Vernon Lee are restored to the listening ear: tales of Italy and old houses, of beauty, memory, music, and those subtle presences by which the past continues to inhabit the present. Here, in full readings, one may wander beneath cypresses, through dim galleries and sunlit villas, attending to a mind for whom art was never inert, but always alive, persuasive, and a little spectral.Public domain
