Abindarr ez is so in love with beautiful Jarifa that when he is taken prisoner by Rodrigo de Narv ez, he asks to be freed for only two days so that he can marry her.

"I was transported into a heroic medieval past that may or may not have existed, but surely should have. ... Knauss has captured the flavour of the language and the time... Abencerraje is a good story that deserves the fresh translation Knauss offers." - Seymour Hamilton, author of The Astreya Trilogy
