Description:
Tariq Ali's 'Shadows of the Pomegranate Tree' is the first in a planned quartet
of historical novels depicting the confrontation between Islamic and Christain
civilisations.
This dramatic family saga set in Muslim Spain evokes a past which has been hidden
from history, bringing to life the turbulent period following seven centuries of
Muslim rule in the Iberian peninsula. In this colourful, sensual medieval world
we read of book burnings and battles, and meet preachers and bandits, lovers and
poets, orthodox believers and cynical sceptics, cooks and family retainers, all
living on the edge of a civilization about to be engulfed.
