Excerpt from Colombo, Vol. 1: Poema
Na ridente esplanada, ovantes, firmes, Como troncos de ferro, ao sol fulguram Pautados esquadrões, lucidas armas. Rebombam no horizonte em densas nuvens Os estrondos da rouca artilheria.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book tells the story of the fall of Granada in 1492, the last stronghold of the Moors in Spain. The tale is told through the eyes of Boabdil, the last Muslim king of Granada. The book explores the complex political and social landscape of the time, and the clash between the Christian and Muslim worlds. The author provides a rich and nuanced portrait of Boabdil, a man torn between his duty to his people and his desire for peace. The book also sheds light on the role of women in this tumultuous period, and the impact of the conquest on the lives of ordinary people. Ultimately, this book is a meditation on the nature of loss, exile, and the search for identity.
