Story
Brunelleschi's Dome is the story of how a Renaissance genius bent men, materials, and the very forces of nature to build an architectural wonder we continue to marvel at today. Denounced at first as a madman, Brunelleschi was celebrated at the end as a genius. He engineered the perfect placement of brick and stone, built ingenious hoists and cranes to carry an estimated 70 million pounds hundreds of feet into the air, and designed the workers' platforms and routines so carefully that only one man died during the decades of construction.

Great story and narration
It’s always tricky reading a novel based loosely on historical events.
I think here the author again successfully creates a captivating story with full of fascinating descriptions of its time and space.
I liked it a lot.

Lovely imagining of Artemesia’s perspective
A great accompaniment to visiting Florence and Genoa, bringing that time to life and trying to imagine who Artemesia was and how she saw the world.

NOT a biography
Not only does it have very little to do with Artemisia's actual life, it is also just poorly written. very little substance and even as light fiction it's just subpar.
