The Pope's Rhinoceros by Elizabeth Norfolk
A richly detailed historical novel that follows the odyssey of a single rhinoceros and the tangled human stories—sailors, merchants, artists and courtiers—whose lives intersect around its capture, transport and celebrity in Renaissance Europe, using their encounters to explore themes of obsession, colonial ambition, faith and the making of myth as cultures collide during the early age of global exploration.
