Summary
Summary
Few writers living or dead have received the monumental acclaim that has been accorded to Salman Rushdie for his richly textured, superbly crafted works. The Enchantress of Florence once again demonstrates the author’s unparalleled mastery.
In the imperial capital of the Mughal Empire, a traveler arrives at the court of Emperor Akbar. The traveler, Mogor dell’Amore, has a tale to tell, and as the words flow out of him, the tale’s rich tapestry of power and desire begins to take on a life of its own. Fueled by the urgency of his narrative and its growing effect on his audience, the traveler paints a vivid portrait of faraway Florence, a beautiful enchantress, and the infamous figure of Niccolò Machiavelli.
With The Enchantress of Florence, the Booker Prize–winning Rushdie delights all those who revel in literature of sublime achievement.
