The Fruit of Her Hands Michelle Cameron lets the reader experience first-hand the tragic end of hundreds of years of Jewish presence in medieval France through the voice of her passionate and learned heroine. The Fruit of Her Hands shows us that women too can bear witness to history. Maggie Anton Michelle Cameron deftly gives dramatic voice to the Jewish women of the Middle Ages and shines a searing light on that dark period of Christian-Jewish relations. The Fruit of Her Hands is suspenseful, soulful and plain wonderful. It takes us to the heights of scholarship and imagination. Ruchama King Feuerman Michelle Cameron delves into one of the darkest eras of the Jewish past and brings forth a deeply compassionate and thoroughly gripping story of a woman whose fate is inextricably bound up with that of her people. The novel presents the tale of a scholarly yet worldly woman, in whose existence piousness and rebellion, passion and fear, happiness and grief, fulfillment and sorrow intermingle to form a totally absorbing whole. The book is meticulously researched and authentic, yet richly imaginative, skillfully weaving history and fiction into a gleaming colorful tapestry. It will keep you spellbound until the last, enthralling page. Eva Etzioni-Halevy |
