«101 Monstros» is a historical essay by Simon Sebag Montefiore, published by Editora Guerra & Paz in paperback (320 pages, in Portuguese).
It brings together 101 biographical portraits of figures famous for their cruelty: emperors, popes, warlords and dictators such as Nero, Genghis Khan, Henry VIII, Stalin or Bin Laden. It combines famous names with lesser-known ones, like Elizabeth Báthory or Pope John XII, and documents their crimes, tortures and motivations.
Originally published in English as «Monsters: History's Most Evil Men and Women»; it is the work following «101 Heróis», the selection of heroes by the same author.
For readers interested in history, biography and true crime who want an accessible tour of the dark side of power.
