Vatican, 1500. Pope Pius III, abandoned and sick, cries out. What used to be a suffering and intense cry is now one of horror, a terrifying echo of one who has just realized that the war of imagination is inevitable.What mysteries hover around those Unknown Lands discovered by the Portuguese? What secrets would be capable of bringing together the most primitive instincts, the act of killing, ecstasy, and the unimaginable notion of being prisoner to Michelangelo?s art?The result of this equation of ravings has distorted history forever, transforming macabre rituals into works of art; and from innocence emerged a curse that until today haunts the inhabitants of Terra Brasilis.With a modern and poetic language, the novel demonstrates that only the force of imagination is capable of making men forget their own perpetual dissatisfaction and confirms the absurdity of art?s essentiality through the banality of life.Ironic and intelligent, the narrative dissolves the limits of historical fiction and creates a surprising plot. The War of Imaginations, debut novel of award winning scriptwriter Doc Comparato, has already been sold in many European and Latin American countries even before being published in Brazil.
