The daughter of a wealthy merchant, young Dolça Llull Prat is besotted with the dashing, bootstrapping Miguel Cervantes from their first meeting. Despite Miguel’s entreaties, the ever-practical Dolça, with her love of luxury and her devotion to her own art, repeatedly refuses to upend her life for him, although she always welcomes his attentions on her own terms. When Miguel renders her as the lowly Dulcinea in his great Quixote, revealing their association, he commits an unforgivable offense and their decades-long affinity is severed—until he reaches out to her one last time.

Best Read!! Amazing story line from this Author.
Revisado: 11-10-24
I have read every newspaper column from Ana Veciana Suarez and I have read every single book she has published - such an amazing and accomplished author. Dulcinea has been her BEST thus far. I can say that a lot of factual historical research had to be done as I could see myself walking through the places and partaking of events that are still true to this date - especially if you are a history freak as myself. The story line takes you through an era of Spanish history which includes relationships, religion, politics, love, family power, social conventions, and lots of surprising moments. I really laughed when the main character puts down the Castillian language and gave out a jovial ‘Ño!!’ at every surprise. I have tremendously enjoyed reading and listening to this book and highly recommend it - you will not be able to put it down. I can’t wait for Ana’s next project. All the best Ana.

By meditating on personal examples from the author's life, as well as reflecting on the inspirational life and writings of Thomas Merton, stories from the Gospels, as well as the lives of other holy men and women (among them, Henri Nouwen, Therese of Lisieux, and Pope John XXIII), the listener will understand how becoming who you are, and becoming the person that God created, is a simple path to happiness, peace of mind and even sanctity.
