Book cover

Selvaggia de' Vergiolesi by Giuseppe Tigri is a gripping historical novel that transports readers back to 14th-century Florence, Italy. The story follows the life of Selvaggia, a strong-willed and independent young woman who defies societal norms to pursue her own desires.

Tigri does an excellent job of bringing the setting to life, immersing readers in the vibrant atmosphere of Renaissance Florence. The intricate details of the city, its people, and its politics are masterfully woven into the narrative, creating a rich and complex backdrop for Selvaggia's story.

Selvaggia herself is a compelling and multifaceted character who undergoes significant growth and development throughout the novel. Her struggles, triumphs, and relationships are portrayed with depth and authenticity, making her a character that readers will root for and empathize with.

Overall, Selvaggia de' Vergiolesi is a captivating and thought-provoking read that will appeal to fans of historical fiction and those interested in the politics and culture of Renaissance Italy. Tigri's novel is a testament to the enduring power of passion, resilience, and the indomitable human spirit.
