Английская Википедия:A Private Venus
Шаблон:Italictitle Шаблон:Short description A Private Venus (Шаблон:Lang-it) is a 1966 detective novel by the Italian writer Giorgio Scerbanenco. It tells the story of how the former doctor Duca Lamberti is assigned to treat the alcoholic son of a millionaire, and begins to unveil the secrets surrounding the death of a young woman in the affluent world of Milan. It was the first in a series of four novels about Dr. Duca Lamberti. An English translation by Howard Curtis was published in 2012.[1]
The book was the basis for the 1970 film Safety Catch directed by Yves Boisset.[2]
Reception
Kirkus Reviews wrote in 2014 that "the first volume in Scerbanenco’s Milano Quartet is a blast from the past, a sleek, stripped-down reminder of the fast, brutal days of Continental noir".[3]
