Piacenza, first half of the 14th century: the nobleman Corrado Confalonieri makes a mistake that endangers his fellow citizens. Crushed by guilt, he suffers a mystical crisis; his wife Eufrosina supports him and even offers herself for an enormous sacrifice. The novel combines historical rigour with a story of carnal and spiritual love.
