This was a slow book to read, but very fascinating to read about: the history of Judaism within Kerala, to see the warring factions of both the black and white Jews, to see the rich history Judaism has within Kerala and how the local population embraced the Jewish people as part of the culture, and to see what has happened now that most have left India to settle in Israel, while also telling the heartbreaking stories of war and enmity after settling in Israel.
The fascinating thing about this book, is it does quite a good job of finding nuances within a community that is refreshing ton
