Description

With the main character being Isavella or Izambo of the Villardouins, a historical figure, and the central event being the capture of the Frankish castle of Kalamata in 1293 by Greek and Slavic peasants, set against the tumultuous backdrop of the Frankish Rule, Angelos Terzakis composes a chronicle of heroism and love, during the time of troubadours, crusaders, pirates, and knights, at the first awakening of the soul of the new Hellenism in the 13th century.

The Princess Izambo is the most classical text in the construction of Angelos Terzakis, organized with exceptional care and skill, lively, colorful, with warmth in the narration, clear and particularly interesting to read despite its length. It is a historical novel that vividly and convincingly recreates such a distant and different era.

The author engages, even indirectly, with the timeless central questions of life, expressing his steadfast belief in the essential tragic nature of life, and especially in the fateful outcome of the most sensitive and worthy individuals.
