«Barro y cenizas» is the historical novel by Zoé Oldenbourg, published by Booket in paperback (672 pages, in Spanish).
The story is set in twelfth-century France, between Champagne and Burgundy, and follows Aalais and Ansiau, Baron of Linnières, through their marriage: loves, separations, children, old age, and death. Castles, villages, and settings in the Holy Land complete a portrait of the medieval world, its morality, and a way of life very different from today's.
The work was originally published as «Argile et cendres» in 1946. This Spanish edition is part of Booket's «Novela histórica» collection.
For readers of historical fiction and narrative set in the Middle Ages, as well as for those already familiar with Zoé Oldenbourg.
Zoé Oldenbourg was a Russian-born French popular historian and novelist who specialized in medieval French history, in particular the Crusades and Cathars.
