The Love of Stones

More about the book

The narrative intertwines the modern pursuit of a legendary brooch once owned by Queen Elizabeth I with the historical journey of two Iraqi Jewish brothers who arrived in London centuries earlier, driven by their own fortune from a jar of precious stones. Set against the vibrant backdrops of London, Tokyo, and Istanbul, the story spans six centuries and explores themes of obsession and desire through the lives of three distinct characters, all linked by their quest for the coveted jewel.
