Om denne e-bog
In Ariosto's epic sixteenth century poem Orlando Furioso, the
beautiful Angelica is rescued by the valiant Ruggiero. He swoops in
riding a hippogriff, a fantastical winged creature, the offspring of a
griffin and a mare. Volatore, as this hippogriff calls himself, has
escaped Ariosto's poem after being trapped within it for centuries and
is now determined to find Angelica himself. Landing in San Francisco, he
meets Angelica Greenberg and the unlikely couple falls in love. But
events constantly conspire to separate them, and Volatore sets out to
find the perfect form he must embody to consummate their love.

Angelica Lost and Found contains life-enhancing wisdom and
emanates with wicked drollery, aesthetic insight and the romance of
Russell Hoban at his best.
