«La mémoire d'Abraham» is a historical novel by Marek Halter, published in paperback (718 pages, in French).
The narrative spans two thousand years of a Jewish family: from the year 70, when the scribe Abraham leaves Jerusalem in flames, to 1943, when Abraham Halter dies in the Warsaw Ghetto. A hundred generations pass on the «Livre familial» through the Middle East, North Africa and Europe, down to Marek Halter, the last 'scribe'.
The work was originally published in 1983 and won the Prix du Livre Inter in 1984. The original edition bears the subtitle «roman».
For readers of family sagas and historical fiction focused on Jewish culture and the diaspora.
