Reviews / Votes

Powerful, riveting, and inspiring... a must read." - David A. Harris, American Jewish Committee; "The Heretic is deeply absorbing, but it also helps Jews and Christians better understand their complex and often painful relationship." - Elie Wiesel; "A first rate job of recreating the complex tragedy and drama of Jewish life in fifteenth-century Spain." - Jane S.
