4.9/5 (25631 ratings)

Description:September, 1570 - Lucrezia Romano of Bolsena, Italy, meets Pyrrho Ligorio, famed antiquarian, as he stops in her small town. He invites her to Bomarzo, a small village two days ride away, where he is helping his friend, Duke Vicino Orsini, create a garden the likes of which have never been seen before. Filled with carved creatures, monsters, and grotesques that spring from the Duke’s imagination, it is both lighthearted and strangely potent with magic. September, 2017 - Frank Farnese of New York City travels to Florence, Italy, to purchase a rare edition of Dante's Inferno, published on the legendary Aldine Press in the 16th century. An inscription on the inside of the front cover speaks of love and loss and memory - and draws him to an odd, mysterious park it mentions, in the town of Bomarzo. As dusk falls he steps inside the mouth of one of the spectacular sculptures, and falls through darkness.... Dante’s Garden is the story of what happens when Frank and Lucrezia meet as he awakens from what he thinks is a dream but isn’t, and how their race to avoid the Inquisition, their extraordinary visit to Venice, and the dreams of the Duke entwine to pull them deeper into adventure, danger, love, and the hardest decisions of their lives. Dante’s Garden weaves fact and fiction, history and imagination, to tell the story of Frank and Lucrezia, and the connection that, finally, may not be strong enough to hold them safe as time all but splits apart.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
