Translated by Sondra Silverston.
Illustrated by
Avi Katz.
Manuel Nuñez narrates the story of his Portuguese Jewish family passing as Christians in Inquisition-era Spain. Manuel's struggles as an adolescent boy and as a Jew are handled competently, but the historical aspects occasionally overwhelm the characters. Dark, static black-and-white illustrations accompany the text. An afterword gives more historical background. Glos.
