Description
The Convert is a captivating novel that weaves together historical sources to tell an extraordinary tale of forbidden love and adventure.
In 19th-century Europe, a young Christian noblewoman abandoned everything for the love of a rabbi's son. Based on real-life documents found in Cairo, Stefan Hertmans follows her journey as she flees through France with her lover, pursued by crusading knights, and recounts her dazzling travels towards Jerusalem.
This striking novel is a testament to the power of love and courage in the face of hardship and hate, and offers a unique perspective on Jewish cultural heritage and medieval history.
