The Blue Manuscript

Interspersed with the testimony of the early medieval calligrapher who created the "Blue Manuscript", Sabiha Al Khemir's subtle, graceful narrative builds into a rich tapestry of human love, hope, despair, greed, fear and betrayal. Intensified at every turn by the uneasy relationship between Islam past and present, and between Islam and the West, "The Blue Manuscript" is a novel which will resonate long after the astonishing solution to its mystery has finally been revealed.
