This book is in the original Spanish and a new English translation.Abindarráez anda tan enamorado de la hermosa Jarifa que cuando es tomado preso por Rodrigo de Narváez, le pide que le libere por solo dos días para poder casarse con ella. Lo que pasa después nos enseña que el amor y la amistad pueden más que la guerra, ¡incluso durante la Reconquista en el siglo XV! El libro clásico de 1551, con ortografía modernizada para facilitar la lectura. This is a classic story of the exotic landscape of medieval Spain, written about 1551, in a new, easy to read English translation. Abindarráez is so in love with beautiful Jarifa that when he is taken prisoner by Rodrigo de Narváez, he asks to be freed for only two days so that he can marry her. What happens next shows that love and friendship are stronger than war, even during the final stages of the Reconquest of Spain. "I was transported into a heroic medieval past that may or may not have existed, but surely should have. ... Knauss has captured the flavour of the language and the time... Abencerraje is a good story that deserves the fresh translation Knauss offers." - Seymour Hamilton, author of The Astreya Trilogy
