LA GRAN NOVELA QUE REVOLUCIONA EL MUNDO DEL ARTE, POR EL GRAN ESPECIALISTA EN LEONARDO Y EL RENACIMIENTO, NÚMERO 1 EN VENTAS EN VENTAS EN ITALIA Y EN TRADUCCIÓN EN ONCE PAÍSES. «Un auténtico terremoto que desvela el misterio de los orígenes de Caterina, la madre de Leonardo da Vinci». -Bertrand Guyard, Le Figaro La increíble historia de Caterina, una niña nacida en la meseta caucásica. Su lengua era la más antigua del mundo y ella estaba destinada a ser una guerrera como sus ancestros, pero un día se vio arrastrada violentamente a la historia. Capturada en Tana, la última colonia veneciana en la desembocadura del Don emprende un asombroso viaje por el Mar Negro y el Mediterráneo para llegar a Florencia en pleno esplendor del Renacimiento. Convertida en esclava por unos mercaderes, tuvo varios hijos ilegítimos, pero a uno de ellos, fruto de su unión con un ilustre notario florentino, lo amó por encima de todos, aunque él nunca pudiera llamarla madre por su condición de esclava. Aquél niño al que ella transmitió todos sus conocimientos sobre las criaturas y la naturaleza, se llamaba Leonardo da Vinci. «Una novela que ha prendido la curiosidad en todo el mundo». -Angiola Codacci-Pisanelli, L’Espresso ENGLISH DESCRIPTION AN AMAZING NOVEL THAT HAS REVOLUTIONIZED THE ART WORLD, BY THE GREAT EXPERT IN LEONARDO AND THE RENAISSANCE, #1 BESTSELLER IN ITALY AND TRANSLATED IN ELEVEN OTHER COUNTRIES. The incredible story of Caterina, a girl born in the Caucasus. Her language was the oldest in the world and she was destined to be a warrior like her ancestors had been, but she was violently dragged into history one day. Captured in Tana, the last Venetian colony on the outlet of the river Don, Caterina begins a wonderous journey through the Mediterranean and the Black Sea to reach Florence in full Renaissance splendor. Turned slave by merchants, she had several illegitimate children, but one of them, fruit of her union with a distinguished Florentine notary, was her most beloved, even though he could never call her mother because of her status as slave. That boy, to whom she passed on all her knowledge on creatures and nature, was called Leonardo da Vinci.
