Off the Shelf: The Weight of Ink - Rachel Kadish

Go to → Rachel Kadish
Veronica Andrews welcomes author Rachel Kadish to talk about her book, The Weight of Ink. Set in London of the 1660s and of the early twenty-first century, The Weight of Ink is the interwoven tale of two women of remarkable intellect: Ester Velasquez, an emigrant from Amsterdam who is permitted to scribe for a blind rabbi, just before the plague hits the city; and Helen Watt, an ailing historian with a love of Jewish history.
