Buch Details
Lucrecia, a young, poor and illiterate girl in sixteenth century Madrid, living in the court of Filipe II, has terrible visions announcing the disastrous end of the Spanish monarchy, including naval battles and invasions of heretics. Fascinated by her predictions, priests and nobles try to exploit her, forming around her a dark congregation. Rigorously documented and written from the strict fidelity to historic events, Ru'a Lucrecia recreates a time not so different to our own, breaking down the boundaries between reality and fiction.
José María Merino is considered one of the most prominent contemporary Spanish writers. His literary production is impressive both in terms of quantity and quality. Born in 1941 he currently lives in Madrid. Best known for his novels and short stories, he is also a poet and a travel writer.
