  Step into the twilight of Alexandria, where the fall of the Lighthouse and the Great Library ignites an odyssey of knowledge, sacrifice, and redemption. The Last Theorem of Hypatia is an immersive historical audiobook that intertwines the decay of a city under siege with the mysticism of Hellenistic philosophy, tracing the fates of three souls bound by a mechanical star map that holds the essence of a lost era. 
  Through vivid prose and rich sensory detail, listeners are plunged into Alexandria’s collapse in 642 CE: the shattering of bronze mirrors, the echoes of Coptic chants reverberating through dusty ruins, and the relentless pulse of an artifact that could either save or bury its legacy. Meet Nazanine of Ctesiphon, a scholar obsessed with preserving Hypatia’s wisdom; Kassander of Thessalonica, a scarred mercenary driven by hatred for academics yet drawn to the chaos’s gold; and Papo, a blind monk whose faith and prophecies guide his path to redemption. 
  From the fractured mirror chamber of the Lighthouse to the buried depths of the Library, where ancient gears awaken and traps guard forgotten secrets, this epic narrative explores the cost of conquest, the power of knowledge, and the fragile hope of rebirth. Blending meticulous historical detail with the enchantment of Alexandrian lore, The Last Theorem of Hypatia is a gripping journey through a world on the brink—where the past murmurs in spirals, the present trembles, and the future hinges on an uncertain dawn. 
  Perfect for fans of historical fiction, ancient philosophy, and tales of destiny and sacrifice, this audiobook transports you to the heart of 7th-century Egypt—a land of scholars, warriors, and beacons where every decision resonates through time. Narrated with passion and depth, The Last Theorem of Hypatia is a haunting tribute to a lost civilization and the souls who bear its light.

  In the swirl of Philadelphia at the end of Prohibition, Leyb meets Charles. They are at a former speakeasy called Cricket's, a bar that welcomes, as Charles says in his secondhand Yiddish, feygeles. Leyb is startled; fourteen years in amerike has taught him that his native tongue is not known beyond his people. And yet here is suave Charles, a Black man from the Seventh Ward, a fellow traveler of Red Emma's, speaking Jewish to a young man he will come to call Lion. 
   
   
   
  Lion is haunted by memories of life before, in Zatelsk, where everyone in his village, everyone except the ten non-Jews, a young poet named Gittl, and Leyb himself, was taken to the forest and killed. 
   
   
   
  And then, miraculously, Gittl is in Philadelphia, too, thanks to a poem she wrote and the intervention of a shadowy character known only as the Baroness of Philadelphia. And surrounding Gittl are malokhim, the spirits of her siblings. 
   
   
   
  Moriel Rothman-Zecher's Before All the World lays bare the impossibility of escaping trauma, the necessity of believing in a better way ahead, and the power that comes from our responsibility to the future. It asks the most essential question: What do you intend to do before all the world?
