ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK 
“People of the Book” by Geraldine Brooks follows Hanna Heath, a book conservator tasked with restoring the Sarajevo Haggadah, a rare Jewish manuscript. Through her work, the novel reveals the book's rich history, including its survival through centuries of war, religious persecution, and cultural upheaval. The narrative intertwines Hanna’s modern-day journey with historical flashbacks, exploring themes of identity, resilience, and the power of storytelling. As Hanna uncovers clues about the manuscript’s past, the novel delves into the interconnectedness of human history, the preservation of culture, and the enduring spirit of those who safeguard such treasures.
