Description

In the early days of a restless Roman household, a young man named Marco finds himself drawn into a maze of secrecy and danger. He slips through shadowy corridors, listening for the faint echo of a voice that may no longer answer, while the weight of his father's merciless reputation hangs over every step. Servants whisper, swords glint, and a mysterious woman, Gordiene, clutches a poisoned blade, hinting at betrayals that could seal the fates of those around her.

The narrative paints a vivid portrait of power struggles in an ancient city where loyalty is fragile and ambition burns bright. As Marco confronts his father’s harsh authority, he grapples with lingering family shame and the promise of a future that might yet rise from this turmoil. Listeners are treated to a richly atmospheric glimpse of Rome’s dark underbelly, where personal vendettas intertwine with the larger currents that will shape a legend.

Giuseppe Rovani

1818–1874

A sharp, restless voice in 19th-century Italian literature, he helped push the historical novel toward something more modern and vivid. Best known for I cento anni, he also took part in the Risorgimento and became an early influence on Milan's Scapigliatura movement.
