Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'The Devil' is a sweeping historical novel set against the backdrop of 15th-century France during the reign of King Louis XI. At the heart of this intricate narrative is the enigmatic relationship between the monarch and his barber-turned-advisor, Oliver Necker, whose shrewd intellect and dark influence earned him the titular moniker. Alfred Neumann masterfully reconstructs a period of immense political upheaval, exploring the psychological depths of two men whose destinies are inextricably linked as they navigate the treacherous waters of the royal court.Through vivid prose and meticulous historical detail, the work delves into themes of power, loyalty, and the dual nature of man. As Louis XI struggles to consolidate his authority and unify France, Necker serves as his silent shadow, orchestrating maneuvers that shape the fate of a nation.
