At the turn of the eighteenth century, a writer--a Jew--enters
an English country manor, where he has been invited to read through
the night to his host until the gentleman falls asleep. What
unfolds then are seemingly unconnected stories covering a vast
array of topics--from incest to madness to a poetic competition in
the court of George III. And what emerges by the end is a
breathtaking tapestry in which past and present, imagination and
truth, are intricately woven together into one remarkable
whole.
