«Le dernier juif» is the historical novel by Noah Gordon, published by Michel Lafon in paperback (388 pages, in French).
In 1492 Spain, with the expulsion of the Jews decreed by the Catholic Monarchs, young Yonah, son of a Toledo goldsmith, flees after the murder of his family. He swears not to renounce the faith of his ancestors and to find those responsible. On his initiatory journey he crosses paths with an inquisitor, relic traffickers, and a Christian physician whose wisdom helps him find serenity.
The original title of the work is The Last Jew, originally published in English in 1999; this French edition is from 2001.
Set in late 15th-century Spain, it is a read for fans of narratives about the Inquisition and the Jewish world.
