Description

Rachele Luzzatto is the only daughter of a Jewish family in northern Italy.

Curious and intelligent, she is caught between her interest in religions - her own and others - and her father's violent rejection of them all. A disagreement ensues between them about the part she is given in the school nativity play.

At the same time, she discovers that her father is ill; the severity of his illness is only revealed to her very gradually while her teacher, various members of her family and even her rabbi offer her wide-ranging and humane support. A.B. Yehoshua paints a complex, and humorous, picture of conflicting religious identities and historical memory in this tender character study of a young girl at the threshold of adulthood.
