Description
The Flori family, poor immigrants from Calabria, conquered Palermo. From despised apothecaries, they became the most significant Sicilian family, dominating trade, transportation, and the most important industries, marrying into aristocratic circles and entering politics... The road to success is thorny, but it is even harder to stay at the top. The continuation of the gripping saga about the real fates of a prominent Sicilian family focuses on Ignazio Flori, who takes over the family empire after the death of its founder, his father Vincenzo. Ignazio's story unfolds against the backdrop of turbulent events, social unrest, and political conflicts in the young Kingdom of Italy during the 1870s and 1880s. It is a story of a winner and a 'conqueror,' but also of unrequited love and the eternal dilemma of those who are forced to decide with their heads instead of their hearts and must prioritize the interests of the greater good over their own happiness.
