La obra que consagró a Susan Sontag como gran novelista: una reflexión sobre la sociedad del siglo XVII a partir del triángulo amoroso entre William Hamilton -embajador británico en Nápoles-, su joven esposa y el almirante Nelson, quien derrotó a Napoleón. Ambientada en el Nápoles del siglo XVIII y basada en las vidas de sir William Hamilton, su famosa mujer, Emma, y lord Nelson, acompañados por muchas de las grandes figuras del momento, esta novela histórica poco convencional, firmada por una de las grandes pensadoras del siglo, nos habla del sexo y la revolución, del destino natural, del arte y de la obsesión del coleccionista, pero, sobre todo, del amor. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION The work that consecrated Susan Sontag as a great novelist.
The Volcano Lover follows the fortunes of a British ambassador, the ravishing woman he marries, and the young British admiral with whom she falls in love with. Set in 18th-century Naples and based on the lives of Sir William Hamilton, his celebrated wife Emma, and Lord Nelson, the novel is peopled with many of the great figures of the day. This unconventional, best-selling historical romance from the National Book Award-winning author of In America touches on themes of sex and revolution, the fate of nature, art, and the collector's obsessions, and, above all, love.
