Sobre IBD

The tale is of a beautiful Spanish girl beloved by all Madrid but burned at the stake in 1680 as a Jewess. The tale opens sixty years later with the mystery of an ancient Spaniard, El Deslengua, the tongueless one, who knew her, her father, a young nobleman who loved her, and a giant gypsy who did not dare. Who was El Deslengua? What was his role in the story? How did their tale of darkness, death, torture, and superstition become a tale a faith, love, hope, and light? It is all told in the tale.
