El prisionero de Zenda, el gran clásico de la novela de capa y espada, en una cuidada edición especial con introducción de Arturo PérezReverte. Rudolf Rassendyll es un joven y adinerado noble que vive apaciblemente en Inglaterra sin otra preocupación que su propio entretenimiento. Cuando decide viajar al reino de Ruritania para asistir a la coronación del rey Rudolf V, poco sospecha que se enfrentará a un reto mayor del que jamás hubiese podido soñar.
El futuro monarca es secuestrado la vÃspera de la ceremonia por su hermano, el duque Michael, señor de Zenda y segundo en la lÃnea de sucesión, y el joven Rassendyll, que guarda con Rudolf V un asombroso parecido, deberá ponerse en su piel para evitar que pierda el derecho al trono. De la noche a la mañana, se convertirá en el soberano de todo un paÃs, en el prometido de la hermosa princesa Flavia y en la única persona capaz de devolver al legÃtimo rey su corona. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Sir Anthony Hope Hawkins, better known as Anthony Hope (1863 -1933), was an English novelist and playwright. He was a prolific writer, especially of adventure novels but he is remembered predominantly for only two books: The Prisoner of Zenda (1894) and its sequel Rupert of Hentzau (1898). Zenda has inspired many adaptations, most notably the 1937 Hollywood movie of the same name.The Prisoner of Zenda (1894), by Anthony Hope, is an adventure novel in which the King of Ruritania is drugged on the eve of his coronation and thus is unable to attend the ceremony. Political forces within the realm are such that, in order for the king to retain the crown, his coronation must proceed. Fortuitously, an English gentleman on holiday in Ruritania who resembles the monarch is persuaded to act as his political decoy in an effort to save the unstable political situation of the interregnum. Reseña:
Una aventura apasionante, un folletÃn a la antigua, en el mejor sentido del término, que no puede dejar de leerse con una sonrisa agradecida y cómplice.
