Immerse yourself in 14th-century medieval Barcelona with 'L'església del mar,' a historical novel by Ildefonso Falcones. The city is at its peak, and its inhabitants decide to build the largest known Marian temple: Santa Maria de la Mar. In parallel, follow the story of Arnau, a serf who flees feudal abuses and finds freedom in Barcelona. Through a life full of challenges, Arnau rises from misery to nobility but also faces envy and a conspiracy that brings him before the Inquisition. This work intertwines loyalty, revenge, betrayal, and love in a world marked by religious intolerance and ambition.
