For Barbara Vaughn, a checkpoint between Jordan and the newly
formed Israel is the threshold to painful self-discovery Barbara
Vaughn is a scholarly woman whose fascination with religion stems
partly from a conversion to Catholicism, and partly from her own
half-Jewish background. When her boyfriend joins an archaeological
excursion to search for additional Dead Sea Scrolls, Vaughn takes
the opportunity to explore the Holy Land. But this is 1960, and
with the nation of Israel still in its infancy, the British Empire
in retreat from the region, and the Eichmann trials in full swing,
Vaughn uncovers much deeper mysteries than those found at tourist
sites. Both an espionage thriller and a journey of faith,
TheMandelbaum Gate won the James Tait Black Memorial Prize upon its
publication, and is one of Spark's most compelling novels.
