Descrizione07Set in Talia, a parallel world very similar to 16th-century Italy, the narrative follows Lucien, who in our world is very ill. Given a marbled notebook to use as a diary, the notebook is the unexpected means that transports Lucien to this dangerous new world; a world that thrills to the delight of political intrigue and where a life can be snuffed out with a flash of a merlino blade. The city of Bellezza (Venice in our world) is astonishingly evoked, with a filmic eye to detail, from the sensuousness of silks and velvets, to the thrill and danger of assassination attempts both and foiled and successful.01Mary Hoffman studierte englische Literatur in Cambridge und London. Sie ist die Autorin zahlreicher überaus erfolgreicher Kinder und Jugendbücher. Der große internationale Durchbruch gelang ihr mit ihrer Stravaganza-Trilogie, in der sie sich vom Italien des 16. Jahrhunderts inspirieren ließ. Mary Hoffman hat drei erwachsene Töchter und lebt mit ihrem Mann in West Oxfordshire.
