Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Set against the backdrop of the turbulent sixteenth century in Florence, the story follows an anonymous Roman scrivener who, while historical events unfold around him, dedicates himself to a secretive masterwork. Unlike typical manuscripts, his notebook holds arcane knowledge that promises wealth, power, and love, but also carries significant risks. As influential figures like Savonarola and Pico della Mirandola shape the era, the scrivener's quest for mastery and understanding of magic intertwines with the chaos of his time.
