Beatrice Cenci: Storia del secolo XVI

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.
