Sobre este audiolivro
A sweeping historical epic chronicles the turbulent evolution of one of the world's most magnificent cities through the eyes of its most powerful architects, popes, and visionaries. From the chaotic ruins of antiquity to the splendid rebirth of the Renaissance, ambitious men and women clash over ideology, art, and absolute power. Intrigues, betrayals, and artistic triumphs shape the very stones of the eternal city in a breathtaking narrative of human ambition. It vividly resurrects the relentless drive and monumental egos that forged the soul of modern civilization.
