He witnesses massacres, befriends literary figures, travels with the Earl of Surrey, and plunges into Italy's intrigues with his companion Diamante.

rife with hypocrisy, violence, and cultural corruption before ultimately departing Italy's shadowy depths. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
