Inhaltsangabe

A magical, multigenerational novel spanning two hundred years in the life of an unforgettable family.

With the sweep of an epic and the intimacy of a deeply personal tale, The Family Orchard captures six generations of love affairs, legends and family secrets beginning in early nineteenth century Jerusalem and stretching to the present. Peopled with enchanting characters -- Esther, the family matriarch who follows the smell of rising bread into the arms of the baker who will become her lover; the twins, Zohar and Moshe, who run the walls of the Old City with their beloved grandfather; Miriam, whose intoxicating beauty inadvertently transforms a house of study into a place of pure carnal frustration -- and enveloped by a sense of mysticism and wonder, The Family Orchard is a strikingly original novel; a rich tapestry of Jewish life filled with reverence for family, history, and the natural world around us.

Preformed by Polly Draper and Fritz Weaver
