Quo Vadis (1896) es una poderosa recreación de la Roma de Nerón, donde el esplendor imperial convive con la brutalidad y el fanatismo. A través del amor entre Vinicio, un joven patricio romano, y Lygia, una cristiana perseguida, Henryk Sienkiewicz teje una historia de redención y fe en medio del caos del Imperio.La novela retrata el nacimiento del cristianismo frente a la decadencia de Roma, en una época dominada por el miedo, el poder y la violencia. Con una prosa majestuosa y una profunda visión moral, Sienkiewicz ofrece un relato épico sobre el sacrificio, la esperanza y la fuerza espiritual que se opone a la tiranía.
