In 1557 a prematurely aged, ill, and very irritable Charles V
(H.R.E.) retires to a small isolated monastery in western Spain. He
is burdened by his failures and unresolved political, military and
religious problems. His only comfort and solace are his memories
and reveries of his much loved mistress Barbara.Blomberg who bore
him a son who became Europe's celebrated and idolized, Don Juan of
Austria. And his revelations of his lifelong relationship with
Barbara are revealing and make a wonderful touching; and emotional
love story.
