Its customers can frolic in a recreation of ancient Rome, enjoy the pleasures of a real nymph in its gardens, or explore darker delights in the witches' cave.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDespite his success, Puozzolino's life is plagued by strife. Entangled in the revenge murder of a nobleman, he provokes both Spain's harsh justice and the capo of a rival clan. Puozzolino is too blinded by a love interest to pay much attention to his growing problems: gang warfare, a duplicitous adviser, and an insane, defrocked cardinal who leads a group of hellspawned followers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePuozzolino and the rest of the nobles play a dangerous game of false loyalty and open rebellion with their Spanish oppressors, while the countless poor have turned the streets into a playground of desperate exuberance. But there is more to fear than politics and poverty in a land where necromancers and demons thrive.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eStruggling against this madness is Puozzolino's jealous lover, Putta, who tries to keep their lives from falling apart.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFrank Aversa's Naples is a surrealist Sin City unto itself. It winds through dark European cobblestone alleys, narrowly escapes a dragon's claws, and flits with the gauzy wings of a sylph. Don't miss your chance to witness the Italian drama of the century.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 354\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.74 x 8.5 x 5.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e May 24, 2024\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47258685243641,"sku":"9798224043422","price":31.66,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/Jy7K6SgA759798224043422_ab44053b-a92d-4292-a94f-b4fa07f4fdef.webp?v=1768760745","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/naples-unmasked-paperback-1","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
