Author(s): Alexandre Torquet Publisher: Albin Michel Publication: 01/12/1994 Number of books: 1 Weight: 377 g Number of pages: 265 EAN: 9782226068040 Basil, the illegitimate son of a Byzantine emperor and a beautiful Russian slave, is castrated in childhood so that he can never claim the throne. Nevertheless, he will become the Prime Minister of a kingdom full of splendor, intrigue, and conspiracies, and will remain so for nearly half a century. Does he owe it solely to his intelligence, or to that exclusive and passionate love that, at twenty, turns his life upside down and makes him henceforth a ruthless man? At the peril of his life, he will pursue the woman he loves more than anything to Baghdad, in infidel land. Will he bring her back to Byzantium and be able to live with her?
Images and colors of the settings, furies and tumults of hearts, striking historical precision: once again, Alexandre Torquet knows how to bring to life the Christian court of Byzantium and that of Baghdad, the two capitals that, in the 10th century, ruled the world. From alleyways to palaces, he takes us into the heart of the adventures of this "Eunuch Prince" who will snatch power and love from destiny.
A poignant and magnificent character, mirroring that Orient which Alexandre Torquet has so skillfully revealed to us since Les Trois Noces d'Anastasia: mysterious, cruel, refined, full of blood and tears, rigor and debauchery, betrayals and absolute passions.
