Another mystifying week of Name That Bookcover has run its course - and there's another lucky Missoulian who has earned a sweet MPL booklight! Congrats to Kathleen M., who submitted her correct guess to the Library Accounts Desk!Synopsis:
It's 1996 and Hannah Heath, an expert in rare books, has been lured from her laid-back life in Australia to Sarajevo, to conserve and analyze the world-famous Sarajevo Haggadah, one of the earliest illuminated Jewish texts. The ancient manuscript, filled with images so rich and beautiful that it is now a priceless artifact, has appeared, vanished, and reappeared numerous times in its 500-year history. Its most recent rediscovery in war-torn Sarajevo, where a Muslim librarian has saved this Jewish holy book, is nothing short of a miracle. -- Distributed by Syndetic Solutions, Inc.
