In eleventh-century Spain, three men from different cultures and religions —the Andalusian poet Mohamed Ibn Ammar, the Jewish physician Yunus Ibn al-Ahwar, and the Christian squire Lope— cross paths during the siege of Barbastro and meet again in Seville, in a story about coexistence and conflict among the three cultures.
The Spanish translation is by José Antonio Alemany. It is a pocket edition and corresponds to number 165 of the Pocket Edhasa collection.
For readers of historical fiction interested in the medieval Iberian Peninsula and in the relations between Christian, Muslim, and Jewish cultures.
