Publisher Description

Rich in visual imagery, Harem vividly depicts the exotic bazaars and dangerous alleys of the city and palace chambers brimming with conspiracy and betrayal—as well as love and redemption.

A seductive and intriguing journey from the humble Persian Jewish quarter to the fascinating world of shahs, soothsayers, eunuchs, and sultanas, Harem follows three generations of strong-willed and cunning women: Rebekah—a poor girl married to the abusive blacksmith, Jacob the fatherless—who emerges from her disastrous match with a mysterious brand between her breasts; Gold Dust, Rebekah's treasured daughter, who enters the opulent and perilous world of the harem and captivates the shah with her singing bones; and Gold Dust's daughter, the revered and feared albino princess Raven, who will one day rule the empire.

Good indulgent read

This book certainly won’t win any prestigious medals but I liked it a lot. The pace is perfect, the plot floated along timely, the details were great. I never once felt stuck like I had to skip ahead a few pages to see when the plot was going to move along (which I usually have to do in most books I read). Probably not for everyone but definitely a good fit for me.
