Sepharad Pa

From one of Spain's most celebrated writers, an extraordinary, inspired bookâ€”at once fiction, history, and memoirâ€”that draws on the Sephardic diaspora, the Holocaust, and Stalin's purges to tell a twentieth-century story.

Shifting seamlessly from the past to the present and following the routes of escape across countries and continents, MuÃ±oz Molina evokes people real and imagined who come together in a richly allusive patternâ€”from Eugenia Ginsburg to Grete Buber-Neumann, the one on a train to the gulag, the otherÂ heading towardÂ a Nazi concentration camp; from a shoemaker and a nun who become lovers in a small Spanish townÂ to Primo Levi bound for Auschwitz.Â FromÂ the well known to the virtually unknownâ€”all of Molina's characters are voices of separation, nostalgia, love, and endless waiting.

Written with clarity of vision and passion, in a style both lyrical and accessible, Sepharad makes the experience our own.

A brilliant achievement.
