Meld je aan bij LibraryThing om erachter te komen of je dit boek goed zult vinden. Op dit moment geen Discussie gesprekken over dit boek. I have given up on this book about 30% in. While the first two books in this loosely connected tetralogy of novels about Portuguese Jews were very good, especially the excellent second novel Hunting Midnight, I found this one rather dull and the characters rather uninteresting. Not enough narrative drive. Still well written, though. ( ) geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

In late 16th-century Goa, despite the Catholic Inquision, the Zarco family holds firm to its Portuguese-Jewish roots. Ti and his sister enjoy their childhood with secret dips into the heady chaos of the Hindu festivals of their beloved cook, Nupi. But as they reach adulthood, the family is torn apart when the father and then the son are imprisoned by the Inquisition. Only someone close to the family could have denounced them. Intent on revenge, Ti is forced finally to face the truth of the betrayal and reassess his most fundamental beliefs. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
