Kamo griadeshi (16+) - Senkevich Genrik E.

A classic of Polish literature, honorary academician of the St. Petersburg Academy of Sciences, Henrik Senkevich was a brilliant historical novelist. Like Hugo, Dumas, Tolstoy, he was able to describe the great events of bygone eras, paying attention and personality to the person who is the creator of these events. In 1905, Senkevich was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature with the wording "For Outstanding Merit in the Field of Epic." "Kamo Growshi" is his most famous novel, which developed during the last four years of Nero's reign (64-68 AD), during the formation of Christianity and the first acts of the apostles. Against the background of historical events that forever changed the face of Western civilization, Senkevich tells a tragic story of love of the Roman aristocrat to a Christian persecuted by the authorities.
