Then and Now

О книге

Stunningly written and cleverly done, Maugham masters the enthralling and shocking world of Machievelli. Maugham found a parallel to the turmoil of our own times in the duplicity, intrigue and sensuality of the Italian Renaissance. Then and Now enters the world of Machiavelli, and covers three important months in the career of that crafty politician, worldly seducer and high priest of schemers.
