Maggiori informazioni sul libro
A German archaeologist and tour guide accidentally discovers the Pope in a Protestant church in Rome, leading him into a whirlwind of questions and thoughts. When does the Pope's hand twitch, and when does it remain still? Why does Libyan dictator Gaddafi flatter the Italian Prime Minister with thirty Berber horses, and why did Augustine have to bribe the Emperor with eighty Numidian stallions to enforce the concept of original sin? Why is Rome a place of longing for Germans, despite their reputation as the worst barbarians there? This powerful narrative explores the enigmatic, magnificent, and abyssal Rome of today, weaving a modern legend about how the Pope transformed into a Lutheran.
