The Pope's Rhinoceros - Brossura

Norfolk, Lawrence

 
9780805054750: The Pope's Rhinoceros

Sinossi

Norfolk's rollicking, picaresque novel is based on one of history's most bizarre chapters: the attempt in the sixteenth century to procure a rhinoceros as a bribe for Pope Leo X. With an epic cast of characters, The Pope's Rhinoceros is both a fabulous adventure tale and a portrait of an age rushing headlong into crisis.
