Grijesi obitelji Borgia

Grijesi obitelji Borgia

Sarah Bower

Set in the opulent but dark world of Renaissance Italy, ruled by the powerful and infamous Borgia family, Sarah Bower masterfully blends historical fact with fiction, creating an atmosphere of suspense and decadence.

The main character, Estense (known as Violante), is a young Jewish woman who flees persecution and enters the service of the court of Lucrezia Borgia, daughter of Pope Alexander VI. Through her eyes, we follow the intrigues, betrayals, loves and deadly ambitions within a family whose name still inspires fascination and fear today.

Violante becomes a witness and participant in intrigues that include incestuous relationships, political marriages, poisons and religious manipulation. Despite her own moral doubts and vulnerabilities, she tries to survive in a world where power is above all and loyalty is easily sold. Through a narrative imbued with emotion and drama, the reader enters the heart of the darkest secrets of the Renaissance and women's destinies within a world shaped by male dominance and political ambitions.
