In this troubled time of the Spanish Reconquista, a rabbi, a sheik and a Franciscan priest come together despite their differences to a treasure hunt ... and what a treasure! Nothing less than the sapphire book, the word of God .... But the inquisition is here, and rumbles in the distance the sound of the battle for the conquest of Granada by the Catholic forces, the end of the Moorish presence in Europe ... And then there was Manuela, which is inserted in the middle of this quest and along the way, over denouement puzzles, itself finds its way!
This book gives us the thrill ... who is right? Have all right? what wisdom? and both an inescapable conclusion which does not change the court of history ... the irresistible human need to be victorious, sure possessed THE truth ... but in the end, did SA it not true?
Get carried away by reading this book, full of scholarship and teaching on the Catholic, Jewish and Muslim who are so closely related and originally.
Gilbert Sinoué is a wonderful writer. I discovered with "Avicenna or road Isfahan" and do not regret it.
