The Faithful: A Novel Based on the Life of Giuseppe Verdi
Collin Mitchell
The rule of power in Europe is changing...
Born
in Italy at the tumultuous end of France’s influence in Europe,
Giuseppe Verdi would go on to become the world’s most recognizable name
in opera.
Set against the rise of the Italian states in the
middle of the 19th Century, The Faithful depicts an artist bedeviled by
his role not just as a composer, but as an unassuming icon of the
Italian Unification and the birth of modern Italy.
Through chance
encounters in gilded Milanese salons and the hushed politics of the
Italian opera, we experience the struggles of a man conflicted by his
role as an artist and his commitment to a country yearning for
independence.
