About This Book

Un duca esiliato vive su un'isola dove pratica la magia e orchestra una tempesta per attirare i suoi nemici e cercare giustizia e riconciliazione. Con l'aiuto di uno spirito servile e sotto l'opposizione di una creatura selvaggia, favorisce l'unione fra la figlia e un giovane naufrago, gestisce gli intrighi degli arrivati e affronta tensioni morali che lo portano dal desiderio di vendetta al perdono. La vicenda alterna momenti di commedia e di tensione, esplora il potere, la libertà, la natura dell'illusione e il ritorno a una vita civile, mescolando poesia, azione e riflessione etica.
