«Lisario o el placer infinito de las mujeres» is the historical and erotic novel by Antonella Cilento, published by Alfaguara in paperback, translated by Carlos Gumpert (336 pages, in Spanish).
In seventeenth-century Naples, Lisario Morales, a young woman of noble origin, avoids an imposed marriage by feigning a sleep from which she does not wake. A Catalan doctor cures her with a secret therapy, and her awakened desire triggers in him an obsession with female pleasure, set in a baroque Naples of convents, painters' studios, and forbidden loves.
Translation from the Italian by Carlos Gumpert. Finalist for the 2014 Strega Prize.
For readers of historical fiction with erotic intrigue and baroque settings.
