The Weight of Ink Soft Cover Book By Rachel Kadish Excellent Condition 575 pages. This was a Christmas gift to me but I never got around to reading it. Excellent condition from Non-smoking home. Set in London in the 1660's and in the early 2000s, it is the interwoven tale of two woman of remarkable intellect. One is an emigrant from Amsterdam who is permitted to scribe for a blind rabbi just before the plague hits the city and the other is an ailing historian with a love of Jewish history. The historian and an American student embark on a project together to find the identity of these documents. Electrifying and ambitious, this is a story of woman separated by centuries and the sacrifices they made to reconcile the life of the heart and mind.
