Catalogue synopsis

Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:

"Leila or, the Siege of Granada, Book III." by Baron Edward Bulwer Lytton Lytton is a historical romance novel published in 1838. Set in Granada during the final chapter of Moorish Spain in 1491, the novel weaves together two parallel stories: the fall of a nation and the fate of a young Jewish woman. As Leila's father shifts allegiances between Christian and Moor, she finds herself torn between her heritage, her Moorish lover, and the forces of Christian conversion that threaten to consume them all.
