In "Blood & Beauty," bestselling author Sarah Dunant explores the notorious Borgia family during the tumultuous end of the fifteenth century in Italy, where beauty clashes with brutality. Focusing on Cardinal Rodrigo Borgia, who ascends to the papacy as Alexander VI, the narrative unfolds through the ambitious drive for power involving his son Cesare, a politically astute yet unstable figure, and daughter Lucrezia, navigating her journey from innocence to political maturity. This richly detailed literary work reimagines the infamous family, emphasizing their complex dynamics against a backdrop of corruption and intrigue in Renaissance Rome.
