In "Quo Vadis" the author gives us pictures of the conflict of moral ideas within the Roman Empire,—a conflict from which pagan immorality declined, and Christianity proceeded as the leading force in history. This powerful novel tells of a love that develops between a young Christian woman named Lygia and Marcus Vinicius, a pagan Roman. It takes place in the city of Rome under the brutal emperor Nero's rule.
The conflict described in "Quo Vadis" has always been of supreme interest to a vast reading audience; and this book rouses more attention than anything else ever written by Sienkiewicz. It is his timeless masterpiece, translated into more than 50 languages worldwide.
