A magical, multigenerational saga encompassing two hundred years in the life of an unforgettable family - a book of love stories, ill-fated and blessed, sensuous as a dream, unfolding in a time and a place where fable is more potent than fact, where the imagination is more powerful than any truth, where the line between myth and history has all but dissolved: Jerusalem, from the early years of the 19th century to the present.
Nomi Eve's debut novel is a rich tapestry of humour and yearning, woven from timeless themes: the evolution of family, the setting down of roots, the sorrow of immigrants and the joy of pioneers, the secrets that bind families together and the legends that sustain them. Shyly sexy and often droll, firmly rooted in the everyday business of living, this is an epic novel about intimacy and about love and about the families and the legends we create for the next generations.
