A fairly quick read.....Maugham's second novel, one he himself was never fond of later in his career. A relatively simple swashbuckling Italian drama adventure.....one full of lots of wanton death and destruction, revealing this to be an apparent normal state of affairs for this late 1400's Italian time period of conquest, swordplay and defending honor. It was apparently based on an actual event, and it highlights that no matter how unpleasant our world can sometimes seem today, we've come a long way!! Some sappier romantic distractions occur and the overwhelming lighthearted tone of this somewhat violent story felt a little disjointed for me now and then. Overall, no complaints.

Classic Literature.
Fiction.
HTML: Immerse yourself in the mystery and intrigue of medieval Italy in this engrossing novel from W. Somerset Maugham, the author of such timeless classics as Of Human Bondage and The Razor's Edge. Though the action of the narrative recounts the way that Filippo Bandolini came to be recognized as a saint, the ups and downs of the protagonist's life clearly illustrate that the path to righteousness is not always an easy one. .No library descriptions found. |
