The Converted: The Rose Series, #3
()
About this ebook
The Converted, in Spanish Los Conversos, were the 15th Century Spanish Jews forced to flee Spain and hide their religious identity to escape persecution—and death. This novel looks at their history through an historical wormhole created during the Spanish Civil War, and explored by Philip Rose , an American architect.
Through well-etched characters of vastly different backgrounds, The Converted weaves themes of the Kabbalah, gold lust, the Spanish civil war and the Nazi era into a single compelling narrative encompassing medieval Spain and its great Sephardic minds, the tragedies of 15 Century El Alhambra Edict and the Holocaust, and modern Europe and California.
