This previously unedited novel is a significant contribution to our knowledge of nineteenth-century writers like Miguel Hué y Camacho who opted to reimagine the relations between Christians and Moors during the Morisco rebellions following the fall of Granada. Luckily, El ferķ de Benastepar has found itself in the capable hands of editors Javier Muńoz de Morales Galiana and Daniel Muńoz Sempere, who offer us a wide window into the originality and multiple sources of the novel. -- Lou Charnon-Deutsch * Emeritus Professor of Hispanic Languages and Literature at Stony Brook University * En definitiva, Hué y Camacho en El ferķ de Benastepar, o los moros de Sierra Bermeja, en la cuidada y rigurosa edición de Tamesis, ha sabido combinar con maestrķa la historia de moros y cristianos con la ficción amorosa que termina en tragedia, con lo que esta novela es un excelente ejemplo del género romįntico oriental." (Ultimately, El ferķ de Benastepar, o los moros de Sierra Bermeja by Hué and Camacho, in the careful and rigorous edition by Tamesis, masterfully combines the history of Moors and Christians with a romantic fiction that ends in tragedy, making this novel an excellent example of the Oriental romantic genre.) * BULLETIN OF SPANISH STUDIES *
