Description
- This book is in a good condition.
“People of the Book” by Geraldine Brooks is a richly woven historical novel that follows rare book expert Hanna Heath as she investigates the mysteries of the Sarajevo Haggadah, a rare Jewish manuscript saved from destruction during the Bosnian War. As Hanna examines the book’s delicate pages, she uncovers a series of tiny artifacts — an insect wing, wine stains, salt crystals, a white hair — each revealing a story from the manuscript’s tumultuous history across centuries and continents. From Inquisition-era Spain to Nazi-occupied Europe, the novel pieces together the lives of those who touched the Haggadah. Filled with suspense, historical intrigue, and deep humanity, People of the Book is a celebration of resilience and the enduring power of stories.
