Las dos manos de Cervantes

Bravo, Blanca

The young and intrepid Miguel de Cervantes intends to fill his life with great deeds of which he can be proud and praised when he explains them later. Thus he arrives at the battle of Lepanto and, from there, he will leave in search of new adventures. However, too soon he will meet Don Juan of Austria..., who will impose on him the toughest of challenges for those who are silent on his merits as a soldier and spy, losing his left hand in the only one of the battles of which he can speak. , is gaining years, sorrow and disappointment. A single hope saves him: to dream that, one day, he will be able to tell everything. Neither Cervantes nor his work ever gave up. Both have survived the passage of time thanks to their courage, their ideals and their eternal wealth, and that is exactly what Blanca Bravo offers us in The Two Hands of Cervantes. A novel with rigorous historical documentation, truth is fused with fiction in a hymn to the beauty of defeat and a tribute to that author and soldier who is now known throughout the world for his colossal novel, Don Quixote. The adventure, the mystery, the game between religions and the language intermingle here as ingredients of a secret potion that will delight any reader who enters it.
