This book took me to another world. Beautiful, enchanting, and exotic set of three stories set in the ancient city of Aleppo, in Syria. Haim Sabato, an Israeli soldier, recalls memoirs of his family from his birth place. If you have an interest in the Jewish history, this book is a definite recommendation for you.
