Eleven-year-old Marek loves Venice. His family has gone to visit the city on water for generations. His great grandparents, his grandparents, his parents, even his 14-year-old brother Victor have made the pilgrimage. Marek knows the names of all the squares and streets of Venice by heart, but he has never actually seen his beloved city in person. Which is about to change. This summer his dream will come true; he will finally visit Venice… But this summer happens to be the summer of 1939. War with Germany looms and Marek’s father enters the army. Instead of St. Mark’s Square, Marek ends up with his mother in Zaleszczyki on the San, in the large villa of Aunt Veronica. But down in the flooded cellar of the mansion, Marek still has dreams. If he can’t go to Venice, Venice will come to him…
