Описание: This book is published by Floricanto Press. www.FloricantoPress.com The Lamps of Albarrac n gives voice to the diverse peoples of late-medieval Aragon - Jews, Muslims, Christians, conversos, and mud jares. Those were the years leading up to the Expulsion of 1492, when the social contract that had allowed the three faiths to live together in tenuous harmony was coming apart. As an author, I was keen to explore beliefs, identities, and inter-faith friendships and conflicts. The peculiar logic of the Inquisitors and those who supported them. The shock of forced conversion to Catholicism. The dramas of resistance. Stories of ordinary people in extraordinary times. While this is a historical novel, I do not claim to capture in a single story the complexity of the fragile convivencia of people of different faiths that existed across Iberia in the 1480's. From such a vast human experience an infinity of stories is possible. This work is in the tradition of the Portuguese saudade-a story of nostalgic longing for a past that witnessed inter-faith friendships as well as enmity. When taught at the elementary level, history shows us how to group people neatly into boxes. What interests me, is the fluidity of human interactions among different groups. I also am passionate about restoring awareness of multicultural heritage, in particular, patrimony that regimes have tried to destroy. The Lamps of Albarrac n has a spiritual subtext. For readers so inclined, it offers an exploration of the Hidden, drawing upon the Zohar, Torah, Talmud, Sephardic Siddur and Commentary, as well as the Quran and the writings of the Muslim poet philosophers of Spain and Persia. As Reyna exclaims, there is so much more to the world than we can ever imagine. Is beauty a revelation? Do our souls shine with the same light? These were spiritual preoccupations of that time. Their relevance today is for you to decide. The lamps in this novel belong to us all. Edith Scott Saavedra earned a Bachelor of Arts, magna cum laude, from Harvard University.

Описание: "Ravishing... as if Saavedra were a modern-day Borges." --Luis Alberto Urrea, O, The Oprah MagazineA novel of dark obsession, missed connections, and violent love. Marcos has just been through a divorce and moved into a new apartment. He feels alienated from his ex-wife, from his daughter, from society; everything feels flat and fake to him. He begins to receive letters at his new address from an anonymous troubled woman who signs off as A. and who clearly believes she is writing to the former tenant, her ex-lover, in the aftermath of a violent heartbreak. Marcos falls under the spell of the manic, hypnotic missives and for the first time in years, something moves him. Blue Flowers alternates between the letters detailing the dissolution of A.'s relationship, and Marcos' growing fixation with this damaged person. The letters become a kind of exorcism as both A.'s epistolary affair and Marcos' personal life reach a crisis point. Possessed by A., he is driven to discover her true identity. Blue Flowers is a dark portrait of desire, undermining accepted truths about love and sex, violence and fear, men and women.
