Historia

Renowned historian Stephen Greenblatt's works shoot to the top of the New York Times best-seller list.

With The Swerve, Greenblatt transports listeners to the dawn of the Renaissance and chronicles the life of an intrepid book lover who rescued the Roman philosophical text On the Nature of Things from certain oblivion.

"More wonderfully illuminating Renaissance history from a master scholar and historian."-Kirkus Reviews, starred review
