Traducción de Javier Guerrero. Título original: Watermark. Histórica (Ediciones B). Francia, 1320. Una extraña niña, blanca como la nieve, nace a la vez que muere su madre; su aspecto indica que es hija del demonio, y para evitar que pronuncie la palabra de éste la comadrona le corta la lengua. Pero Auda es fuerte, y sobrevive. Su padre, un prestigioso fabricante de papel de la ciudad, le enseña a escribir para que así pueda comunicarse. Su caligrafía es tan primorosa que encuentra un trabajo con los señores del castillo, donde estará a salvo de la Inquisición, que persigue a todos aquellos sospechosos de tener algún trato con Satanás. El Santo Oficio, sin embargo, acusa al padre de Auda de hacer negocios con los Hombres Buenos y lo condena a muerte. ¿Logrará Auda limpiar el nombre de su padre a tiempo para salvarle la vida?

Zustand: Gut. Zustand: Gut | Seiten: 368 | Sprache: Englisch | Produktart: Bücher | The daughter of a papermaker in a small French village in the year 1320—mute from birth and forced to shun normal society—young Auda finds solace and escape in the wonder of the written word.

When darkness descends upon her world, Auda—newly grown to womanhood—is forced to flee, setting off on a remarkable quest to discover love and a new sense of self . . . and to reclaim her heritage and the small glory of her father's art.…
