Description
The Earth Will Shake Historical Illuminatus Chronicles Volume 1 by Robert Anton Wilson A vast and all-encompassing conspiracy unfolds throughout history, and at its heart lies a mysterious murder in Naples, Italy, in 1764. Young Sigismundo Celine's investigation into the Rossi brigade, former M.A.F.I.A. assassins, and the secret agenda of the Inquisition sets him on a journey that will take him through the epic backdrop of the French and American revolutions. As he navigates this complex web of intrigue, Sigismundo is joined by an unlikely group of companions, including Mozart, Dr. Frankenstein, Casanova, and a mysterious violet-eyed assassin. This heady brew of satire, intrigue, magic, high adventure, and life-changing philosophy is seasoned with the wry, compassionate humanism that defines Robert Anton Wilson's work. Astonishing and unforgettable, this novel re-invents the historical genre while laying bare the secret history of the Enlightenment.
