Memories of Eden by Violette Shamash

This is my first entry... I thought I'd start by sharing with you this book. I have not read it yet, but the reason I dare to suggest it is because it was written by the grandmother of a very good friend of mine. She told me the book is beautiful and I believe her. Her family has a very interesting story.

The book portrays the life of the Jewish community in Baghdad in the first half of the 20th century. Everyone lived in harmony then and life in Baghdad was fabulous. Check out the reviews on Amazon, they are all great.

I hope to read it soon, but I have lots to catch up on and I am not a fast reader.
