Title: A fascinating portrait of an obscure writer & exotic region
Review: This is one of the most absorbing books I've read in a long time. Not only is it a suspenseful, globetrotting investigation of a relatively unknown writer who penned the grievously underappreciated novel "Ali and Nino," but it is a thoughtful study of area of the world about which Americans know very little. This is an area of the world where the first Christian nation was established; where Christians lived harmoniously with Jews and Moslems.This book by Tom Reiss is a remarkable synthesis of social and historical topics that can help us understand better the world we live in today.
