L'occhio del falco

By Joan Fallon

Historical fiction, Serious and literary fiction

Synthetic audio, Automated braille

Summary

Questa è la storia di Subh, un’umile schiava che sposando il califfo al-Hakim riesce a diventare la donna più potente del regno di al-Andalus. Quando il califfo muore e lascia come erede il giovane al-Hisham di appena undici anni, Subh… cerca di proteggere suo figlio e il trono istituendo una reggenza affinché governi fino alla maggiore età del ragazzo. Tuttavia, accecata dall’amore, non si accorge della spietata ambizione di uno dei reggenti. A poco a poco l’amante di Subh isola il giovane sovrano sia dalla corte che dal resto paese, imprigionandolo nel suo palazzo e spostando la sede del potere a Cordova. Subh dovrà scegliere se proteggere suo figlio o rimanere con il suo amante. L'occhio del falco è un romanzo di intrighi politici e complotti. Ambientato alla fine dell'età d'oro della Spagna musulmana, la storia è ricca di dettagli storici che calano il lettore in un mondo esotico ormai perduto.
