With their stomachs churning on the jewels they have swallowed, the
courtesan Fiammetta and her companion dwarf Bucino escape the sack
of Rome. It's 1527. They head for the shimmering, decadent city of
Venice. Sarah Dunant's epic novel of sixteenth-century Renaissance
Italy is a story about the sins of pleasure and the pleasures of
sin, an intoxicating mix of fact and fiction, and a dazzling
portait of one of the worlds greatest cities at its most potent
moment in history.
