Examples of use of bucino
1. "Like good Christians, we carried our riches on the inside," Bucino remarks sardonically.
2. Fiammetta, a highly paid courtesan, and her jester/accountant Bucino, a dwarf, flee to Venice with nothing but their clothes – and stomachs full of swallowed jewels.
3. Still, Dunant doesn‘t stint on either history or character – Bucino and La Draga are particularly memorable – and "Company" rallies in time for a moving, melancholy conclusion.
4. The first third of "In the Company of the Courtesan" is riveting, but no amount of atmospherics can disguise the fact that the novel spins aimlessly once Fiammetta and Bucino get settled in Venice.
