An historical novel about utter decadence, written in a collagist style. Formally charming, but not sure if I could draw any message from out of it. Am I as a reader just a voyeur of immoral, hypocrite, murderous Vatican court life in the days of Pope Alexander VI, a man greedy for power? Does the author give any hints of psychological or social analysis or criticism? I didn't see any (which certainly doesn't proof that it's not there).

I will leave a review later to explain the stars but I am going on vacation. But quick thought it felt somewhat bland like it was trying to get a lot of info out there without much plot. You might as well go for a nonfiction anthology of the family. However there were weird play sequences that tripped me up

Borgia Bullshit

A very loose tale of the Borgias. Some history and some fantasy! Te de laudamus omnipotenti. Gloria en et spiritu tu tuo.

This was nice, but not more than nice. The book tells episodes of the life of the Borgias, without much connecting
tissue. I had expected it to be carried by witty or lyrical language (because Klabund), but found myself disappointed.
