«Ojos azules» is the historical short story by Arturo Pérez-Reverte, published by Seix Barral in hardcover (68 pages, in Spanish).
The action takes place on the night of June 30, 1520, the «noche triste», when the conquistadors abandon Tenochtitlan while the Aztecs await their revenge. Amid the rain and chaos, everyone flees leaving the gold behind, except a blue-eyed soldier who insists on keeping his sack of precious metal, crawling through mud and blood, clinging to the gaze of his pagan Indian woman.
Published in 2009, it belongs to the Únicos collection, with a prologue by Pere Gimferrer and an edition illustrated by Sergio Sandoval.
For readers of historical fiction about the conquest of Mexico and followers of Arturo Pérez-Reverte.
Periodista, ex reportero de guerra y novelista español, autor de la saga del capitán Alatriste y de novelas como La tabla de Flandes y El club Dumas.
