«La triste reina» is the historical novel by Ricardo Ruiz de la Sierra, published by R. Ruiz in paperback (190 pages, in Spanish).
A novel about Juana of Portugal, wife of Henry IV of Castile and mother of Juana la Beltraneja, portrayed by traditional historiography as an adulteress. The work vindicates her figure: her education, her unhappy marriage, the insemination that allowed her to conceive, and her defence of the legitimacy of her daughter against Isabella the Catholic.
The book includes a prologue by Julio Valdeón Baruque and corresponds to the second edition.
For readers interested in the history of 15th-century Castile and in the figures of Juana of Portugal and Isabella the Catholic.
