Venice, 1468. A love triangle develops between free spirit Sosia - who has a predeliction for books and Venetians - a young editor and the seductive scribe Felice Feliciano, a man who loves the crevices of the alphabet the way other men love those of women. Then, a dark magic begins to haunt them. As a conspiracy threatens them, their fate hangs in the balance. Binding all the participants together is the poet Catallus - with his desperate and unrequited love.

  • "In 1468, the von Speyer brothers journey across the Alps to Venice, where they introduce Guttenberg's movable type. With competition on his heels, Wendelin von Speyer accepts his wife's advice and tempts the fates by publishing the first printed edition of Catullus's erotic verse, a move that will enrage the church, scandalize the city, and change lives forever."
