Entre los muros de la Torre Azul
$ 26.45
The year is 1663. Leonora Christina, daughter of King Christian IV of Denmark, is imprisoned in the Blue Tower, a prison located in Christiansborg Palace and reserved for anyone who dared to conspire against the Crown. The reason? She is accused of knowing about her husband's conspiracy against the heir to the throne, her brother Frederick III.
Although it seems like something out of fiction, these are the true memoirs of Leonora Christina Ulfeldt, handwritten by her during the twenty-two years she spent confined in a cell without any real evidence to incriminate her. Not knowing if she will ever regain her freedom, Leonora Christina transcribes these experiences as a long letter to her children. Writing becomes, at the same time, an anchor in the face of the uncertainty of her existence.
Surrounded by countless maidens and eccentric characters, also imprisoned in adjacent cells, and entrusted to a God she exalts as her ultimate salvation, she will experience a life full of poise and acceptance in the face of her inevitable and uncertain destiny.
