Isabel de Habsburgo

Here the author presents the life of Isabella, third daughter of Joanna of Castile and Philip I and who, at the age of 14, became Queen of Denmark, Norway, and Sweden.
Written in first person, the book tells the story of a girl who was destined to carry the Habsburg emblem in other kingdoms and who sacrifice her personal life for the good of the Empire. From her departure from Flanders to her tragic and early death, the book gives an overview of the most relevant events in her life: her marriage, the infidelity and injustices of her husband Christian II, the later fleeing of Denmark after forced destitution, and the denial of her brother Charles IV to aid her because of his sympathies towards Luther.
In this unforgettable, moving, and astonishing novel, the protagonist tells us of those experiences that forever marked her short life. The reader will also learn about other colorful historical figures of the time as he/she is transported to a dramatic and crucial part of history through the book’s realistic descriptions.
