4 of 4 people found the following review helpful. Some who saw Naples By Jane Stivarius This is a review of the Italian original. The English is not yet available at amazon.comI wish that the publishers had not changed the Italian title "A senso del dolore" to the one used in the English language release "I Will Have Vengeance" for this book is more about sorrow than vengeance. I wish that the author had made more of a link between the verisimo operas being performed in the book (the almost over-done double bill of "Cav and Pag") and the verisimo lives in fascist Naples of 1931. Maybe the problem is that the ingredients of opera, Teatro San Carlo, Naples, fascist Italy of 1931 and a detective who "sees" the dead cooks up into just too grand a minestrone for this interesting detective story.Consequently, for me, much remains incomplete. For instance, the author explains that giving a foundling the last name of Esposito was a common Neapolitan practice but doesn't add that this last name derives from the ancient Greek practice of exposing unwanted infants to the elements.In short, after enjoying the novel thoroughly, I was thoroughly unsatisfied. (Three stars) Too short a book. (Five stars). Very few times in my reading life, have I wanted a book to be longer. This is one of those few times. (Average 4 stars)

1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Authentic By Montalbano Good to see more 'authentic' Italian crime fiction being translated into English at last - rather than the poor man's version: the foreign (ie English/American) writer capitalising on an exotic location, while adding 'local colour' in the form of recycled clichès about Italian bureaucracy or politics, for example. While that is a perfectly valid approach, I can't help but think it's another example of the triumph of 'packaging' over 'content' that has defined western culture in recent times ... anyway, enough pseudo philosophy and back to the book.Having a hard-nosed police commissioner who can literally 'see' the the final moments of victims' lives after the event would seem to place the series more in a fantasy/supernatural genre rather than in crime fiction, but somehow it's a device that seems to work - and quite powerfully at that. It also adds another 'emotional' dimension to the story in a genre that can often be too clinical or seen as just a problem-solving exercise. The only minor criticism would be that, for me, the novel's setting (ie the 1930s Mussolini era) was not a central part of the story, and therefore seemed superfluous. On the other hand, why should it? Maybe it's just due to my outsider's curiosity/ignorance and something Italians understand innately and don't need to make a big deal about. Whatever ... I suppose it does add to the mystique and somehow makes it even more 'foreign'.

This was my introduction to Ricciardi's mysteries and I liked it very much By Alejo Planchart This was my introduction to Ricciardi's mysteries and I liked it very much. It is amusing and a very good description of the Duce's epoch. Sometimes it sort of gets to socialist or paternalist but just a little. I intend reading more from this series
