Corto Maltese #3 [18]

In "La casa dorata di Samarcanda [parte seconda]", Corto Maltese continues his perilous journey across the early 20th century’s shifting political landscape, chasing a legendary treasure said to be hidden by Alexander the Great in Afghanistan. Traveling through the nascent Turkish Republic, the Soviet Union, and Reza Pahlavi’s Iran, he navigates a world of intrigue and cultural collision, all while pursuing a mission that intertwines myth with a daring plan to free Rasputin.

Tutto ricominciò con un'estate indiana unfolds in the 1600s near the frontier settlement of New Canaan in New England, where peace between English colonists and local Indigenous people has long held. Amid a sudden, golden summer day that feels almost too perfect, a series of events unfolds that will shatter the fragile calm, stirring deep tensions rooted in forbidden love, repressed desire, and the rigid moral codes of a Puritan society.
