Forlagsbeskrivelse af Quo Vadis af Henryk Sienkiewicz
‘Quo Vadis’ is a historical epic, set against the backdrop of a Rome at the height of its power. Rome finds itself at a turning point under the despotic emperor Nero, the strange Christians, followers of Peter, are growing in number. Their aversion to the hedonistic life of Romans has created a powder keg of hysteria and misunderstanding, and the crazed Nero is all too happy to light the match. Our protagonist Vinicius, a Centurion in the army has fallen madly in love with the elusive Ligia, a Christian. As the harrowing plans Nero has for Rome’s Christians become ever clearer, Vinicius will have to act fast if he hopes to save his love. From the sweeping Alps, to the blood drenched sand of the Coliseum, Sienkiewicz brings the glory of Rome to life in an entertaining, gripping novel perfect for anyone who loved HBO’s ‘Rome’.Henryk Sienkiewicz (1846-1916) was a Polish fiction writer who was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1905, for his outstanding merits as a writer of epic fiction. He became one of the most famous authors in Poland at the end of the 19th century, before translations of his work catapulted him to international renown. Many of his works remain in print today with his most famous novels being ‘With Fire and Sword, ‘Quo Vadis’ and ‘Sir Michael’.
