Produktbeschreibung
This excerpt from a historical novel, set against the backdrop of the Norman conquest of England, tells the story of Al-Muri, a captured scholar from Barbastro, Spain. The narrative begins with the brutal sack of his city in 1064, which shatters his peaceful, scholarly life and forces him into slavery. He is taken north to France by his new master, a Norman knight named Guillaume de Mornay. During his captivity, he forms a deep and loving connection with Flavia, an Englishwoman captured by the Normans. Their quiet sanctuary is threatened when Guillaume and his men prepare to join William the Conqueror's invasion of England in 1066. Separated during the chaotic Battle of Hastings, Al-Muri survives and begins a desperate quest to find Flavia. He witnesses the brutal "Harrying of the North," a campaign of terror and destruction by the Normans to crush English resistance. Al-Muri dons a Norman disguise to travel unnoticed and learns that Flavia is not a mere captive but a resilient rebel fighting alongside her people. The novel chronicles his transformation from a passive scholar into a determined seeker, as he follows clues and rumors through a devastated land, driven by a love that transcends the violence and cultural divides of his time. The story explores themes of loss, identity, and the enduring power of human connection in the face of historical brutality.
