Title: Disappointment
Review: This book was so disappointing, I felt cheated. The book is supposed to be about a young Jewess at the time of the Inquisition. A woman who is a midwife and who practices the kabbala. A beautiful concept! A young woman living in dangerous times, who can get herself in trouble in so many ways! But, the book is not really about Ruth. It is about the men who swirled around her, controlling her life: The Archbishop, the canon for the Archbishop,and the Spanish Inquisitor, whose eye has been on this Jewish woman for a while. It is THEIR politics we get involved with,not Ruth's challenges.When the book focused on Ruth it was interesting, but that was far too infrequently.
