Description

Description from Project Gutenberg

"Isabella von Ägypten: Kaiser Karl des Fünften erste Jugendliebe" by Achim von Arnim is a novella published in 1812. When the young gypsy Isabella's father is executed, she uses magic to raise a mandrake root that can find treasure. Her extraordinary beauty catches the attention of the future Emperor Charles V, and they fall in love. But Isabella wants more than romance—she dreams of using their child to reunite her scattered people and lead them back to Egypt. As political ambition and enchantment collide, their love faces impossible choices. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
