Rich in research, learning and imagination, The Florentine Trinity is a poetic history of late 15th Century Florence, Italy, told in the voices of people who lived that history: Lorenzo de’ Medici, Girolamo Savonarola and Niccolo Machiavelli. Written in the form of three separate, though intertwining, autobiographies, the novel offers an intimate glimpse into the lives of notable men–adding flesh to the mythic bones of the Italian Renaissance–during a time when the salvation of man’s mind and soul was tested to its limit, and the balance of life swayed with the fickle fortune of fate.
