Miriam: A Novel of Love and the Talmud in Medieval France by Maggie Anton

4.0

This second book follows Miriam, Rashi's second daughter. Although it is fiction, the author seems to have done good research and it is rich in historical detail which I enjoyed very much. Miriam's betrothed dies in a tragic accident and she marries Judah, who lusts after other men. I could have done without those details. However, it is still a good book and I enjoyed it very much. I am now reading the third book.
