Our next book: The Last Kabbalist of Lisbon by Richard Zimler
The year is 1506, and the streets of Lisbon are seething with fear and suspicion when Abraham Zarco, a renowned kabbalist, is found dead. Berekiah Zarco, a talented young manuscript illuminator, investigates his uncle’s murder, and discovers in the kabbalah clues that lead him into the labyrinth of secrets in which the Jews sought to hide from their persecutors. A marvelous story, a challenging mystery, and a telling tale of the evils of intolerance, The Last Kabbalist of Lisbon both compels and entertains.
