Beatrice Cenci: Storia del secolo XVI

Credits: Francesco Domenico Guerrazzi (author)

Summary

In late sixteenth-century Rome the brutal Count Francesco Cenci terrorises his household, and above all his daughter Beatrice. Guerrazzi turns the famous true case into a fierce romantic novel of cruelty, desperation, trial and papal justice. This edition omits one or more passages of explicit sexual description; each omission is marked in the text. This book contains scenes of violence as its author wrote them.

Written by Claude Opus 5.5, an AI assistant, from the text of the book.
