Secrets from the past threaten the present, which is not without its own fresher mysteries. Sharnick's characters are genuinely interesting people, with believable lives and personalities. As the author deftly weaves the separate threads of those lives into a single tapestry that pulsates with danger and violence, nothing is obvious, and many things remain hidden until the end.In some ways the strongest character in Thirst is Venice herself, beautiful and decadent, magical and cruel. It's obvious that the author knows Venice and her history, and she brings it alive in an intensely sensual way. As other reviewers have said, Thirst would make quite a film.Since the setting is Venice, everything is surrounded by water. It's ironic, then, that all the characters thirst - for something out of reach, something that has been lost, something unattainable. The interactions among characters are never superficial. Two conversations between two pairs of sisters, toward the end of the book, are cases in point: layers upon layers of complexity emerge.There is a lot of richness in this book. It's by no means a light read, and some of the characters' experiences are quite disturbing (though completely justifiable historically), but it is rewarding. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Venice. *by M***O on Reviewed in the United States on November 27, 2012* This novel pulled me in from the very first page. Thirst was written in such a way that one felt as if they were living the parts. Each character had something inside of them, something for which they longed. I couldn't help but become attached to the deep desires and secrets that wove this story together into a tapestry of love and loss, of pain and healing, of life and death. The descriptions of Venice made one feel as if they were truly part of this time and space.I will admit that, toward the end, I could not put this book down. When I finished reading I still felt the long lasting effects of life in 1613 Venice. This author truly knows the history of this beautiful place and complex time in human history. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Enthralled *by M***N on Reviewed in the United States on April 30, 2012* I made Thirst, by Mary Sharnick, the first purchase on my new Kindle Fire. What a great choice! Since downloading the book, it has consumed my free time (and even some time that should not have been free). Admittedly not a historic fiction enthusiast, Thirst has captivated me, because while the background will capture history fans, the plights, struggles and revelations of each character will keep any reader on the edge of his or her seat. This book has me walking and reading - always an indication of a terrific book. By all means, get yourself a copy of Thirst, and be prepared to get nothing else done until you've gotten through the last page.
