Thirst for life, passion for power and taste for adventure...Florence, 1466. The era of the Medici, Leonardo da Vinci, Machiavelli, Savonarola...Countless narrow streets and alleys, noisy workshops and shops, monasteries and churches, palaces and prisons. Outside the city walls, sixty thousand people live in this cramped space. Nino Latini knows: if you want to survive in this city, you must curb your passions. But Nino's greatest gift becomes his greatest curse. Unlike other people, he can taste any objects, not just culinary dishes. Every scent, every ingredient comes to life for him as brightly as in painting, and he uses his gift too extravagantly, often even risking his life. His passion for the beautiful Tessina also becomes deadly. Nino flees Florence, hoping that Fortune will be merciful to him...For the first time in Russian!
