Descripción del artículo del vendedor

Paperback. Granada, 1599. The lead tablets of Sacromonte have been unearthed, and the Church is celebrating what it believes is proof of Christian primacy in Spain. But Nur al-Haqq Jimenez, a Morisco translator living under a borrowed name, recognizes something else in the inscriptions: the work of her grandfather's secret circle of scholars, designed to be read not in one language but in two, simultaneously. When she is hired to assist Fray Tomas de Olmedo in cataloging the tablets before they ship to Rome, Nur begins feeding the monk her grandfather's Arabic cadences without telling him what she is teaching him. Over weeks of close collaboration in a stone scriptorium, their voices adjust. The Latin and the Arabic begin to fit. And in the space between them, something appears that neither voice contains alone. But the Church examines texts, not practices. Rome will send Latin scholars to read the Latin half and call the tablets forgeries. And within Nur's own community, a man who lost his family to forced conversion sees her work with the monk as one more act of erasure dressed in a scholar's robe. With the tablets about to leave Granada and her access to both worlds closing, Nur must decide what can be preserved and what must be let go, knowing that the knowledge she holds exists only between two people and vanishes the moment either one withdraws. Eighty years later, in a Roman archive, a young woman holds two condemned documents against a window. She was never told the key. She figures it out herself. The Language Between is a historical fantasy about what happens to knowledge when the people who hold it are pulled apart. Based on the real plomos del Sacromonte, it is the story of two readers, two languages, and the meaning that lives in the space between them. This item is printed on demand.
