The epic saga of a famous Italian family, beloved by thousands of readers not only for its gripping narrative, but also for its marvelously rendered spirit of Sicilian life at the turn of two centuries.
The story begins in 1799, when the Florios move to Sicily after an earthquake in Calabria. Two brothers, Paolo and Iñazio, begin to build their empire in a town that is far from the most hospitable. Life's hardships and the fickleness of the world around them inspire the enterprising brothers to look for new moves and invent technologies. And after a while, the Florios began to deal with everything that Sicily is so rich in: spices, fabrics, wine, tuna and steamships.
