Mr Mani

Mr Mani

by A . B . Yehoshua (Author)

Synopsis

Six generations of the Sephardi Mani family are chronicled in this
profound and passionate Mediterranean epic, which moves backwards
from the 1980s to the mid-nineteenth century.
The story comprises of five conversations, each centering on the fate of a
different member of the Mani family, and in each the responses of one
person are absent.
Mr. Mani is surprisingly humorous, full of extraordinary historical
perspectives, and deeply wise and compassionate. It is an imaginative
tour-de-force.
