The Books of Jacob by Olga Tokarczuk

3.0

This book was too long. 3.5 A good story and an attempt to explain cults and why are people drawn to false messiahs. One can’t help but ask - even today with so much access to information, ignorant people are drawn to these manipulative “leaders” grifters really, and their handlers. The premise was good and the historical background was good, it’s just that it was too long.
