The Weight of Ink
by Rachel Kadish
Critics say this book is little more than a derivative of A.S. Byatt's Possession. I cannot say, as I have never read Possession. Perhaps I will do so now, and compare it against the standard that The Weight of Ink sets.
I loved this book. Set in the 166os and the early 2000s, ranging from Restoration London to 20th-century Israel, and including snippets related to Portugal, Florence, and Amsterdam. Wrestles with big philosophical questions and the quotidian decisions that ultimately make a life.
A masterpiece of history and philosophy and really quite un-putdownable.
