«Troya» is the historical novel by Gisbert Haefs, published by Planeta DeAgostini in hardback (568 pages, in Spanish).
The novel transports the reader to the mythical city of Troy, where legend and history intertwine. Heroes such as Odysseus, Paris and Achilles converge in the narrative with the turbulent political changes of the Mediterranean in the 2nd century BC, and from that crossing emerges a narrative fresco about a decisive moment in the formation of Western culture.
Translation by Carlos Fortea; original title «Troja», originally published in 1997. Belongs to the collection Últimos Éxitos de la Novela Histórica.
For readers of historical fiction and classical mythology, especially those who enjoy recreations of the ancient world and its heroes.
Gisbert Haefs is a German writer in several genres and translator. He has written historical novels such as Alexander, won both the Deutscher Science Fiction Preis and Kurd-Laßwitz-Preis in science fiction, and placed at the Deutscher Krimi Preis for crime fiction. As a translator he worked on a much criticized effort at translating works of Jorge Luis Borges into German.
