Summary

Descubre la historia de la extraordinaria mujer detrás del gran genio del Renacimiento.

«Al comprender el orden universal, el mundo nos pertenece un poco más, Leonardo. No importa qué rama del conocimiento estudiemos, en la oscuridad debe haber luz.»

Una joven aldeana ha dado a luz a un bastardo, predestinado a convertirse en el artista más grande de todos los tiempos. Caterina repentinamente se convierte en madre de un niño que posee una inteligencia prodigiosa y ella, con espíritu curioso y algo de intuición, lo lleva a descubrir su talento.

Un futuro luminoso se abre frente a ese genio al que bautiza como Leonardo. Esta ágil y entrañable novela desvela la infancia de Leonardo, sus pasiones, el juicio por sodomía, el fulgor de la Florencia de los Médicis, el Milán de los Sforza, los talleres de los grandes artistas y el esplendor del Renacimiento.
