And who WAS the fairest among women?
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 22 years ago
I liked this book. As I riffled through the pages, it felt as if I were drifting along in a slow moving stream of life. It was warm and subtle and intriguing. When you are finished reading the book, answer this question: who WAS the fairest among women? Was it Rosa or her daughter, Angel? My favorite scenes in the book were with the gallery of portraits on the bedroom wall. If you liked "The Magician's Assistant" you'll like this one.

Another oustanding novel from Shifra Horn.Like Four Mothers a romantic and sensual novel spanning a vital period in Jerusalem history.It is another really good read with great descriptive passages and lovingly told.There are moments of poignancy and sadness but the humour and fantastic characters carry this story along.I await future books from this author with eagerness.
