Angielski
In 18th-century Dresden, beauty, power, and ambition are as fragile-and deadly-as porcelain.
Johann Kändler, a young sculptor, is summoned to the royal court, where King Augustus the Strong demands a lifelike porcelain menagerie. Every chisel mark could secure his future-or destroy it. Meanwhile, decades earlier, Fatima, a Turkish handmaiden turned royal mistress, must navigate court intrigues and reclaim her identity in a world where survival means mastering appearances-and power.
Two lives. One king. A deadly obsession.
