Book Description:
|
A portrait of Luisa Abrego, a freed slave who became the first woman of mixed race to marry a white man in 16th century Spain. She is tried by the Inquisition for bigamy. Luisa has been voiceless in history, so her story is told through the memories of Europeans who encountered her.
