«Der Buchdrucker der Medici» is the historical novel by Christoph W. Bauer, published by Haymon Verlag in paperback (184 pages, in German).
In the midst of the Thirty Years' War, printer Michael Wagner settles in Innsbruck and is appointed court printer by Claudia de' Medici. The narrative follows his printing house and bookshop for almost four centuries, from the baroque and the plague to the Tyrolean uprising of 1809 and the world wars, up to the contemporary era.
Subtitled «Eine Hommage an Michael Wagner», it is a homage to the printer and his bookshop, the Wagnersche Thalia in Innsbruck.
For readers of historical fiction interested in the history of the book, printing, and Europe from the 17th to the 20th century.
