This was an astonishing novel based on a true bit of history. It is the story of the Sarajevo Haggadah. Geraldine Brooks has imagined it's creation and owners over the centuries, who we learn about in chapters that go back and forth in time. In the process we also learn about the restoration of ancient books and art and various periods of history. Obviously lovingly and meticulously researched.
