Sinopse
Características

Have you ever wondered: where is the line between legend and reality? And what could life have been like in medieval Italy? Magical, interwoven with arts, romantic? Or rather painfully cruel and tyrannical? Would you like to see behind the tales?The novel that you are holding in your hands, not only takes you back to the world of medieval Italy with its unique style and dreamy atmosphere, but it also reveals curiosities that can only be found in original Italian chronicles, while also exploring the mysterious, hidden spots of Siena in the 14th century.We gain insight into the astounding contrast that developed within the Church: how could mere deep faith keep people alive, and how did religious leaders become fearfully autocratic and greedy.Saints, witches, and devils come to life through stories of real characters, of human fate. Abundant research comes together to form a masterfully strung thread, and the result is a tale that puts an end to all the guessing
