1983DISPONIBILITÀ GARANTITA AL 99%; SPEDIZIONE ENTRO 12 ORE DALL'ORDINE. COME NUOVO, MAI SFOGLIATO, LIEVI SEGNI DEL TEMPO ALLA COPERTINA. Ciro Spitama, discendente diretto del sacerdote Zoroastro profeta dell'Unico Dio, ambasciatore del re di Persia ad Atene, ormai giunto al crepuscolo dei suoi anni detta le proprie memorie al nipote Democrito. Ecco i Grandi della storia che hanno avuto a che fare con l'anziano ambasciatore come fosse un loro pari: Serse, grande amico dai tempi della comune educazione alla corte di Susa, destinato a sedere sul trono di Persia; la regina Atossa, che ammalia con i suoi racconti, scrigno di tutti i segreti dell'Impero; Buddha, che Ciro Spitama incontra nel folto di un bosco indiano, e Confucio, conosciuto sulle sponde del Fiume Giallo in Catai. Ha viaggiato e visto, Ciro Spitama, al servizio della corte persiana, fino all'approdo ad Atene, allora al massimo del suo fulgore. Ed ecco, ad Atene, Pericle, di cui si guadagna la stima, Anassagora, compagno di desco, ed Erodoto, avversario in schermaglie polemiche. Un giovane e brillante carpentiere di nome Socrate gli ripara il muro della villa con vista sull'Acropoli, e con lui discute di filosofia. E in ogni luogo, a ogni incontro, sono sempre gli stessi interrogativi immortali, nati assieme all'uomo, che dominano la conversazione: com'è stato creato l'universo, e a quale scopo? E perché il male è stato creato insieme al bene? Vidal affronta tali temi senza che la sua sensibilità contemporanea interferisca col rigore storico, offrendoci così un efficacissimo spaccato del pensiero del tempo.
