Novel and Composer

I was reading a book by Jose Sarmango that Baltasar and Bilimunga, I came across Domenico Scarlatti in this novel and now I am listening to his music in this atmosphere, it might be interesting!
They wrote about the novel;
On one side, the Portuguese monarch, Dom Joao V, a febrile nincompoop who diverts himself with toys by day and impregnates compliant nuns at night. Around him circle his sleepy queen, fawning nobles, starchy footmen. Eager for an heir, Dom Joao V promises the Franciscan order that if it intercedes effectively with the heavenly authorities, he will reward it with an enormous (and unneeded) convent in the town of Mafra. The Queen conceives - hurrah! The King lives up to his promise - bravo! The Portuguese peasants, conscripted to labor in Mafra, sweat and suffer. On the other side, two characters based on historical persons. Padre Bartolomeu Lourenco, a heretical priest who disdains the Trinity, keeps working on a machine named the Passarola (Portuguese for big bird) with which he means to take off for freedom. And Domenico Scarlatti, the famous musician, comes to Lisbon to teach the King's clumsy daughter but soon finds himself far more interested in the padre's plans for flight.
