About the Book

Esta es la historia de Isabel, una mujer sabia, o mal llamada bruja, en los convulsos primeros años del siglo XVII, y que demostrará la fuerza y valía que toda mujer posee en su interior y que no puede ser callada ni siquiera por una institución tan poderosa como la Inquisición.
A principios del siglo XVII, Isabel y Ana son dos hermanas de un pueblo del Levante español a las que sus padres esconden para protegerlas de los hombres que vienen por ellas. Isabel, la mayor, intuye que no volverá a ver a sus progenitores. Su padre le dijo una última frase antes de ocultarlas: «Ve hacia el mar.» A la mañana siguiente, las niñas huyen del pueblo, que ven totalmente arrasado...

Tras una noche en el bosque, finalmente llegan al mar, y allí las encuentra Joan. Este las acoge como un padre, consciente de que Isabel nunca se recuperará y que, además, buscará venganza. Joan trabaja haciendo perfumes y esencias, y Ana e Isabel lo acompañan por los pueblos de la comarca. Un día, en Altea, Isabel, ya una adolescente, advierte que un chico la observa, y se pone nerviosa. El chico se acerca a saludarla e intenta conversar con ella. Con el paso de los días, Isabel empieza a sentir por él algo que nunca había sentido por nadie.

Una noche en que no consigue conciliar el sueño, acechada por las pesadillas que la persiguen desde la muerte de sus padres, Isabel camina hasta la playa y allí ve a unas mujeres que llegan desde diferentes puntos, y se acerca para averiguar qué están haciendo. Ve que bailan alrededor de una hoguera y que, de pronto, muchas de ellas, desnudas, introducen en su cuerpo una hierba que al parecer les provoca un placer irresistible. Se queda observando, fascinada, y de súbito ve a una mujer que la ha descubierto.Asustada, huye de regreso al hogar.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

This is the story of Isabel, a wise woman--some say "witch"--in the tumultuous first years of the 17th century, who demonstrates the strength and value that all women possess inside and that cannot be silenced, even by an institution as powerful as the Inquisition.

At the beginning of the 17th century, Isabel and Ana are two sisters from a town in the Spanish Levant who are hidden by their parents to protect them from the men who come for them. Isabel, the older one, senses that they will not see their parents again. Their father told her one last sentence before hiding them: "Go toward the sea."

The next morning, the girls flee the village, which has been destroyed. After a night in the forest, they finally arrive at the sea, and there they find Joan. He takes them in like a father, aware that Isabel will never recover and that she will seek revenge. Joan works as a perfume maker, and Ana and Isabel accompany him through the towns in the region. One day in Altea, Isabel, now a teenager, becomes aware that a boy is watching her, and she gets nervous. The boy greets her and tries to chat with her. Over time, Isabel starts to feel something for him that she has never felt for anyone.

One sleepless night, pursued by the nightmares that have afflicted her since her parents' death, Isabel walks toward the beach. There, she sees women arriving from all over, and she approaches to find out what they are doing. She sees them dancing around a bonfire and many of them, nude, suddenly put an herb inside themselves that seemingly provokes an irresistible pleasure. She watches, fascinated, but is suddenly discovered...
