Franco Mormando is associate professor of Italian at Boston College and the author of several books.
"Franco Mormando's fascinating book is a welcome addition to the Bernini literature. It is both a biography of the artist and a portrait of Roman Baroque culture. Though written for a general audience, it reveals an impressive command of the specialist scholarship-in art history, literature, and history. Mormando wears his learning lightly, writing with animation, carefully pacing his anecdotes, and making the whole as entertaining as it is informative." -Pamela Jones, University of Massachusetts, Boston"
