"The passionate biographical novel of Michelangelo....
His time - the turbulent Renaissance, the years of poisoning princes, warring Popes, the all-powerful de'Medici family, the fanatic monk Savonarola...
His loves - the frail and lovely daughter of Lorenzo de'Medici; the ardent mistress of Marco Aldovradni; and his last lave, his greatest love - the beautiful, unhappy Vittoria Colonna...
His genius - a God-driven fury from which he wrested the greatest art the world has ever known....
Michelangelo Buonarroti: creator of the David, painter of the Sistine ceiling, architect of the dome of St. Peter's, lives once more in the tempestous, powerful pages of Irving Stone's great new book."
