«Crónica do rei-poeta Al-Mu'tamid» is the historical novel by Ana Cristina Silva, published by Editorial Presença in paperback (180 pages, in Portuguese).
A fictionalised chronicle of the life of Al-Mu'tamid, born in Beja in 1040 and heir to the dynasty that ruled Seville. After the fall of Córdoba, the southern Iberian Peninsula is fragmented into rival taifas; the poet-king moves between courtly splendour and power struggles, while the author also imagines his more intimate side.
The first edition was published in 2010 and is classified under the categories of History and Literature & Fiction.
For readers interested in the history of al-Andalus and fictionalised biographies of real figures.
