For April, the group discusses People of the Book, the acclaimed historical novel by Pulitzer Prize winner Geraldine Brooks. Inspired by a true story, this ambitious, electrifying work traces the harrowing journey of the famed Sarajevo Haggadah, a beautifully illuminated Hebrew manuscript created in fifteenth-century Spain. When it falls to Hanna Heath, an Australian rare-book expert, to conserve this priceless work, the series of tiny artifacts she discovers in its ancient binding – an insect wing fragment, wine stains, salt crystals, a white hair – only begin to unlock its deep mysteries, and unexpectedly plunge Hanna into the intrigues of fine art forgers and ultra-nationalist fanatics.

From the New Castle County Website: As the North reels under a series of unexpected defeats during the dark first year of the American Civil War, one man leaves behind his family to aid the Union cause. From Louisa May Alcott’s beloved classic Little Women, Geraldine Brooks has taken the character of the absent father, Mr. March, and tells his story of going off to war and of reopening past relationships in the process. As riveting and elegant as it is meticulously researched, March is an extraordinary novel woven out of the lore of American history.
