Marilì Cammarata,
Angels, Daisies, Mandolins and other wandering Levis
A large Venetian family from the ghetto to the world
(Lint, Trieste 2016)

A book that tells the story of a large family of Venetian Jews, those Levis who, coming from the Padua ghetto, took root in the lagoon city and within one hundred and fifty years spread across three continents, leaving traces of their ingenuity everywhere, of their wealth, their philanthropy and their culture. Among all of them, originally traders, bankers and financiers, we finally find Ugo and Olga Levi and the birth of their Foundation. Learn More.
