The Golden Egg audiobook in series Commissario Brunetti Mysteries

I am learning firsthand why Donna Leon is such a respected author. Although to date I’ve only read two of the more recent books, I am totally in awe of her ability to bring her characters to life without glorifying them. In addition the underlying subject matter is always worthy of deep moral discussion. Infused with humor, erudite references and humanity, these are stories worth reading both as a portrait of the Italian police system, the city of Venice and human foibles. My only complaint is that many Venetian words appear without benefit of available translation.

The games with words he and his family played gave me a sense of the family maturing…their closeness also the roles each played in the husband wife closeness. I enjoyed the two women Elettra and Griffoni shuffling into a more friendly position among the three…the mystery unwound slowly with some mistakes in my solutions and a twist I had not seen coming I enjoyed the pace like sipping from a glass with wine

Audiobook The Golden Egg by Donna Leonm

The Golden Egg is the tale of a man child who dies suddenly from sleeping pills he mistook for candy. As Commissario Brunetti follows a trail to unearth what really happened to Davide Cavanella, he encounters twists and turns, unexpected u-turns, and a most unlikely murderer. Full of wit and charm, plus his usual deceit at unearthing details , Brunetti once again does not disappoint . I did, however , miss the children , and Paola , his wife, needed more of my time. Their absence was noticeable . Still, worth your time.

“But why would anyone want this sweet, simple-minded man dead?” we are asked. But, after some persuasion on behalf of his dear wife Paola, Commissario Guido Brunetti sets his sights on solving one of Donna Leon’s best mysteries! In “The Golden Egg,” Leon’s latest in her outstanding series, we find nothing to disappoint us.

I received my copy earlier today and in one sitting–and one fell swoop–I read all 276 pages. I couldn’t contain myself (my only complaint is that now I’ll have to wait another year for the next Leon installment!).

At any rate Leon’s conundrum (which makes it Brunetti’s) is that a “nobody” is found dead–well, nobody of high Venetian stature: he’s only a mentally handicapped man who works at the dry cleaners–the usually bureaucracy of the Venice police is content simply to shelve the case and either hope for a miracle to solve it, or simply to forget about it anyway.

Alas, not so with Brunetti. Leon keeps his family, his on-going struggle with Vice Questore Patta, his working relationship with the brilliant Signorina Elletra, the pervasive corruption of the Italian constabularly–nothing new here, but she’s able to sustain our interest with no trouble all all. Leon’s prose style moves rapidly but with great depth, of character and of social significance. And these are only some of the reasons that Leon’s series is so worthwhile, so readable, so exciting to follow. In her Brunetti (and his family and co-workers) Leon has created characters we care about. Coupled with the immense skill of “crime solving” that the Commissario has and Leon’s penchant for delivering an excellent story, readers get, well, ANOTHER Leon. It continues to amaze me how she is able to sustain this series. In this, the 22nd Brunetti, we are not disappointed. That said, though, I am an avid Leon reader (I’ve read all 22 books and like them all!)and perhaps bear a bit (a lot?) of literary bias here. Still,my comments stand!

Audio The Golden Egg narrated by David Colacci

I lay my colours out first. I am a devout Leon Fan. I love Venice having discovered it, so to speak, over 20 years ago, and started Commissario Brunetti books with “Death at La Fenice” her first novel. It would be interesting, if I can find it, to read that one again and compare the two. I read her latest in just 3 days and have a problem with writing an opinion. It’s a page turner for me, but would it be for someone new to the books of Leon? Somehow I don’t think so. I love all the usual ingredients of all her novels – Family/Wife/Children/Food, and the city (I walk with him on his strolls through Venice), his colleagues (all of them inc Foa), and indeed, the plots, which is where I feel this one may not be a hit with newcomers (though I sincerley hope I am wrong). The plot is different, and to say more might be to give too much away, but, like characters in the book, I asked “Why are you doing this?”. But bravo to Leon for trying something a bit different. I loved it, whilst still feeling an uneasy sense of being disapointed. But, needless to say, I will continue to buy while she continues to write.

After reading and enjoying all the previous 21 books in the Brunetti series I felt I knew the characters, the locations, and the author, and looked forward to this the latest volume. Sadly I found it disappointing by comparison. Like a pale shadow of a Brunetti mystery. Lacking the detail that usually fascinates. Lacking the insight into human relationships that I usually admire. Lacking credibility in several scenes, and even the central plot is a bit thin and far fetched. And (I’m sorry) even boring in places. For example, a click by click description of someone making a Google search, explaining all the things they find that are no help and not what they want, and ending with them turning away from the computer and saying let’s try something else. If I’d been the editor, those few pages would have vanished instantly, and the story wouldn’t have noticed.
