«La catedral del mar» is the historical novel by Ildefonso Falcones, published by Grijalbo in hardcover (669 pages, in Spanish).
Set in fourteenth-century Barcelona, the novel follows Arnau Estanyol, a serf who flees the abuses of his feudal lord and takes refuge in the city, where he works as a stevedore, soldier, and money changer. His social rise runs parallel to the construction of Santa María del Mar, in a plot of loyalties, betrayals, love, war, and plague under the threat of the Inquisition.
It is the first book in the «La catedral del mar» saga.
