The year is 1506, and the streets of Lisbon are seething with fear and suspicTori' when Abraham Zarco is found dead, a naked girl at his side.- Abraham was a renowned kabbalist, a practitioner of the arcane mysteries of the Jewish tradition at a time when the Jews of Portugal were forced to convert to Christianity. Berekiah, 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 challenging mystery and a powerful indictment of the evils of intolerance, The Last Kabbalist of Lisbon is an extraordinary and spellbinding historical thriller.
'Remarkable erudition and compelling imagination, an American Umberto Eco. Zimler brings an overwhelming power and vividness to his accounts of indiscriminate rape, pillage, vandalism and massacre over a single week, and he brilliantly communicates the dilemma of a people attempting to continue to practise their own religion while not endangering their lives by being discovered doing so. It is easy to see how a novel simultaneously so riveting as a murder mystery and so moving as an evocation of a particularly tragic period of Jewsh history should have already become a bestseller' - Francis King, Spectator
'An international bestseller and a riveting literary murder mystery, his novel is also a harrowing picture of the persecution of sixteenth-century Portuguese Jews and, in passing, an atmospheric introduction to the hermetic Jewish tradition of kabbalah mysticism' - John Murray, Independent on Sunday
'Gripping, richly written and overflowing with historic detail' - The New York Times Vissza
