PRAISE FOR SEPHARAD "A magnificent novel about the iniquity and horror of fanaticism, and especially the human being's indestructible spirit."-Mario Vargas Llosa "If Balzac wrote The Human Comedy, Mu oz Molina has written the adventure of exile, solitude, and memory."-Arturo P rez-Reverte, One might argue against such a literary appropriation of the Holocaust, yet Munoz Molina's urgent desire to bear witness to it, even though at a remove, and his very sensitive ability to evoke the humiliations of its victims makes Sepharad an amazing book. The Margaret Sayers Peden translation is excellent. Read it., PRAISE FOR SEPHARAD "Moving and often astonishing."--Richard Eder, The New York Times "An amazing book. The Margaret Sayers Peden translation is excellent. Read it."-- The Washington Post Book World, Elegiacally beautiful...Calling on such inspiring figures as Franz Kafka and Primo Levi for guidance. Munoz Molina creates astute, deeply felt, and exquisitely expressive testimony to love, suffering, and the astonishing fecundity of human consciousness., This book is no boneless ''meditation''; it has all the onward rush and effortfulness of an epic, and it''s studded with the terrible stories you hear from acquaintances in ''the insomniac world of travelers.'', Munoz Molina writes the novels of the people he''s met and imagined, gleaning from the names he encounters stories that vibrate beneath the burden of history, that lift with the breath of human life., PRAISE FOR SEPHARAD "Moving and often astonishing."-Richard Eder, The New York Times "An amazing book. The Margaret Sayers Peden translation is excellent.

Synopsis
From one of Spain's most celebrated writers, an extraordinary, inspired book-at once fiction, history, and memoir-that draws on the Sephardic diaspora, the Holocaust, and Stalin's purges to tell a twentieth-century story. Shifting seamlessly from the past to the present and following the routes of escape across countries and continents, Muñoz Molina evokes people real and imagined who come together in a richly allusive pattern-from Eugenia Ginsburg to Grete Buber-Neumann, the one on a train to the gulag, the other to a Nazi concentration camp; from a shoemaker and a nun who become lovers in a small town in Spain to Primo Levi bound for Auschwitz. And others-some well known, others unknown-all voicesof separation, nostalgia, love, and endless waiting. Written with clarity of vision and passion, in a style both lyrical and accessible, Sepharad makes the experience our own. A brilliant achievement., From one of Spain's most celebrated writers, an extraordinary, inspired book-at once fiction, history, and memoir-that draws on the Sephardic diaspora, the Holocaust, and Stalin's purges to tell a twentieth-century story.

- n***e (186)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufFirst time buying from this seller and I am so happy with this purchase . The books all arrived packed very well and in a sturdy box which was so appreciative. They are exactly as described and were a great price. My books were shipped fast and this seller is very good at getting back with answers to questions. Very highly recommend them. They have so much to choose from!
- l***l (612)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzter MonatBestätigter KaufThe Nader Khali book "Racing Alone" was received on December 3, 2025. The book is in very good condition and is a good value. The book exceeds the description and photos in the listing. The book was well packaged and was not damaged in shipping. In college, circa 1982, I took a course from Dr. Khalili and used the draft manuscript of this book as our textbook. The price for both the book and shipping were very reasonable. Thank you.
- 5***_ (3)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzter MonatBestätigter KaufThe item was in mint condition besides a little wear detail on the slipcase that was accurately described by the seller in the listing. Was incredibly well kept, for a book around 7 years old. Fast delivery and really good packaging. Very satisfied with this purchase. Would definitely recommend and also purchase again from this seller in the future.
