In 1506, Michelangeloa young but already renowned sculptoris invited by the sultan of Constantinople to design a bridge over the Golden Horn. The sultan has offered, along with an enormous payment, the promise of immortality, since Leonardo da Vincis design was rejected: You will surpass him in glory if you accept, for you will succeed where he has failed, and you will give the world a monument without equal. Michelangelo, after some hesitation, flees Rome and an irritated Pope Julius IIwhose commission he leaves unfinishedand arrives in Constantinople for this truly epic project. Once there, he explores the beauty and wonder of the Ottoman Empire, sketching and describing his impressions along the way, as he struggles to create what could be his greatest architectural masterwork.

Tell Them of Battles, Kings, and Elephantsconstructed from real historical fragmentsis a thrilling page-turner about why stories are told, why bridges are built, and how seemingly unmatched fragments, seen from the opposite sides of civilization, can mirror one another.

Arvustused

"All of Énard's books share the hope of transposing prose into the empyrean of pure sound, where words can never correspond to stable meanings. He's the composer of a discomposing age." -- Joshua Cohen - New York Times Book Review "Énard weaves an imaginative and suspenseful tale of civilizations and personalities clashing, of love, of being an artist in a violent era." -- Juan Vidal - NPR "There is a lush materiality to Énards prose, thick and smooth, so that following the artists expeditions through Ottoman opium dens feels nearly as immersive as being in them." -- The New York Times "Tell Them of Battles, Kings, and Elephants (deftly translated, like Énards three previous English releases, by Charlotte Mandell) is a tale of bastard genius that might have been, and a cautionary fable about the consequences of parochial timidity." -- Julian Lucas - The New Yorker

Mathias Énard is the author of Compass (winner of the Prix Goncourt, the Leipzig Prize, and the Premio von Rezzori, and shortlisted for the 2017 Man Booker International Prize), Tell Them of Battles, Kings, and Elephants, Zone, and Street of Thieves.

A Chevalier des Arts et Lettres, Mandell has translated works by a number of important French authors, including Proust, Flaubert, Genet, Maupassant, and Blanchot.
