«El atlas furtivo» is the historical novel by Alfred Bosch, published by Booket in paperback (380 pages, in Spanish).
In 14th-century Europe, with Jews, Moors and Christians coexisting among cathedrals and conflicts, two Jewish cartographers from Mallorca receive a royal commission to draw a world map reflecting the entire globe. In parallel, they produce a second atlas, hidden and fabulous, with the stories told by sailors and travellers. When this copy disappears, intrigues break out at court.
«El atlas furtivo» won the Premi Sant Jordi in 1997 and was originally published in Catalan as «L'atles furtiu».
Recommended for readers of historical fiction set in the Middle Ages, with an interest in ancient maps, legends and courtly suspense.
