Kay C. (KaysCMAlbums) reviewed The Sarajevo Haggadah - an ancient text survives insurmountable odds! EXCELLENT READ! on 9/17/2008 + 97 more book reviews

Helpful Score: 6

I can hardly believe how much I enjoyed this book. It was riveting to read all the accounts of such history based on one ancient illustrated text the Sarajevo Haggadah. This author is truly a giant in her field. She used her talent, background, and experiences to weave a most compelling and believable account of the creation and existence of such an historical treasure. The People (characters) of the Book are so real, I wish I had known every one of them! I love the structure of the book as well: how the author weaves each Person into the novel while telling Hannas story fascinated me. If I was every going to re-read a book, this might be it. Im sure I missed a lot the first journey through. An inspiring novel of grandiose proportions.
