Lying abroad reconstructs the tumultuous early modern career of a jobbing ambassador, Henry Wotton, the man James I sent to Venice in 1604 to restore Anglo-Venetian relations. It recounts his back-story then follows his daily life in diplomacy, poised between tedium and crisis – a life endlessly theatrical. -- .
