By the late eighteenth century Casanova, once one of the great lovers and adventurers of Europe, has become tired, old, and women no longer find him appealing. His exile from Venice is keeping his spirits at a low, and thus far his treatise against Voltaire remains unwritten. Arthur Schnitzler's Casanova's Homecoming is an examination of the great lover when he is no longer great, and when the only romances available to him seem to be with women equally old and worn. Old age does not sit well with Casanova. His arrogance, dutifully rewarded with the embrace of a thousand women when young, has remained unsatisfied for some time now. He idles his days recounting stories of his youth to men equally corpulent, and his gambling debts have become large. Schnitzler writes that Casanova, "[t]hough no longer driven by the lust of adventure that had spurred him in his youth, he was still hunted athwart the world, hunted now by a restlessness due to the approach of old age." As a literary device for exploring the eroticism of aged men, Casanova is a brilliant choice. Most people have heard of him, and if not, then the term is a common one when discussing the amorous adventures of young males. By writing of Casanova after he has peaked, instead of at his prime, Schnitzler is able to take one of the emblems of masculine sexuality and upturn it on its head. For the most part, this technique is exceptionally effective, for we instinctively expect Casanova to succeed because, well - he's Casanova! It doesn't make sense that he wouldn't.

“Sexy, surprising, funny, insightful, and wildly entertaining” (Huffington Post)—the definitive biography of Giacomo Casanova, the impoverished boy who became the famous writer, notorious libertine, and self-invented genius in decadent eighteenth-century Europe. Today, “Casanova” is a synonym for “great lover,” yet the real story of this remarkable figure is little known. A figure straight out of a Henry Fielding novel, Giacomo Casanova was erotic, brilliant, impulsive, and desperate for recognition; a self-destructive genius. Over the course of his lifetime, he claimed to have seduced more than one hundred women, among them married women, young women in convents, girls just barely in their teens, women of high and low birth alike. Abandoned by his mother, an actress and courtesan, Casanova was raised by his illiterate grandmother, coming of age in a Venice filled with spies and political intrigue. He was intellectually curious and read forbidden books, for which he was jailed. He staged a dramatic escape from Venice’s notorious prison, I Piombi, the only person known to have done so. He then fled to France, ingratiated himself at the royal court, and invented the national lottery that still exists to this day. He crisscrossed Europe, landing for a while in St. Petersburg, where he was admitted to the court of Catherine the Great. He corresponded with Voltaire and met Mozart and Lorenzo da Ponte—assisting them as they composed the timeless opera Don Giovanni. And he wrote what many consider the greatest memoir of the era, the twelve-volume Story of My Life. Laurence Bergreen’s Casanova recounts this astonishing life in rich, intimate detail, and at the same time, paints a dazzling portrait of eighteenth-century Europe, filled with a cast characters from serving girls to kings and courtiers, “great fun for any history lover” (Kirkus Reviews).

One morning he went out for a walk beyond the town limits to excogitate the final touches for some sentences that were to annihilate the infidel Frenchman. Suddenly he fell prey to a disquiet that almost amounted to physical distress. He turned over in his mind the life he had been leading for the last three months. It had grown wearisomely familiar—the morning walks into the country, the evenings spent in gambling for petty stakes with the reputed Baron Perotti and the latter’s pock-marked mistress. He thought of the affection lavished upon himself by his hostess, a woman ardent but no longer young. He thought of how he had passed his time over the writings of Voltaire and over the composition of an audacious rejoinder which until that moment had seemed to him by no means inadequate. Yet now, in the dulcet atmosphere of a morning in late summer, all these things appeared stupid and repulsive.
