«Quo Vadis» is the historical novel by Henryk Sienkiewicz, published by Barbour Publishing, Incorporated in paperback (496 pages, in English).
Set in first-century Rome, the novel combines a love story and intrigue with the persecution of Christians under Nero. Through characters caught between the imperial court and the Christian community, the novel portrays the clash between the opulence of the Empire and the nascent faith, with violence against Christians as a backdrop.
The work was originally published in Polish in 1896 with the title «Quo vadis: Powieść z czasów Nerona»; this English edition dates from 2000 and belongs to Barbour's Classics Library collection.
For readers of historical fiction and religious fiction who want to delve into Nero's Rome and early Christianity.
