“Kantika” is a dazzling Sephardic multigenerational saga that moves from Istanbul to Barcelona, Havana, and New York, exploring displacement, endurance, and family as home. A haunting, inspiring meditation on the tenacity of women, this lush, lyrical novel from Elizabeth Graver celebrates the insistence on seizing beauty and grabbing hold of one’s one and only life.
“In gorgeous detail, this epic family story restores a lost time and place. ‘Kantika’ is both an immigrant tale and a hero’s journey as Graver’s extraordinary characters―first among them the indomitable Rebecca―travel between worlds and find ways to refashion their lives.”―Allegra Goodman
