When grief-stricken Dr. Hannah Lallouche leaves San Francisco for a six-month sojourn on the Island of Djerba, Tunisia, she wonders how she will cope with the challenges that await her professionally, socially and emotionally. The leaders of the close-knit Jewish community are also skeptical of her abilities. She will surprise them and herself by being well up to the task, and will be enriched by her experiences. She will also find healing and happiness in a private journey of recovery and rebirth that will take her on a visit to the city of Livorno in Italy, and ultimately to Israel.
This moving, romantic novel is a very enjoyable read, and will broaden the reader’s knowledge of the Jewish communities of Tunisia and Italy.
