«Le Livre d'Hanna» is the historical novel by Geraldine Brooks, published by Belfond in paperback (413 pages, in French).
In 1996, Australian book restorer Hanna is commissioned to restore the Sarajevo Haggadah, a Hebrew codex rescued from the Balkans. Through its clues, the stories of those who saved it are told: a Kabbalist during the Inquisition, a Venetian censor and a Muslim intellectual facing the Nazis, while Hanna reconnects with her past.
The original title of the work is People of the Book, and the French translation is by Anne Rabinovitch. The novel was awarded the Australian Book Industry Award and the Massachusetts Book Award.
A work for readers of historical novels and for those who appreciate stories about books, manuscripts and heritage conservation.
