For over two thousand years Alessandro has represented the myth of the hero who, from the West to China, has fed a river of legends and fantastic tales. A great and excessive character in everything: in his courage as a warrior, in his anger and generosity, in the vastness of his ambitions and his conquests, in the premature end. In ten years, the young Alexander destroys an empire that had stood for two hundred, becomes a thousand times richer than any other monarch in the world, and sets out on an expedition to India that seems superhuman even to those who worship him as a god.
