The Lost Torah of ShanghaiLily Kovner's first reaction to the news that a precious Torah has gone missing from the home of a Chinese government official in Shanghai is disbelief. She scoffs at her nickname, "the Jewish Miss Marple," and rejects the prospect that she could be instrumental in recovering the Torah. Yet, Lily's devotion to her newfound Chinese Jewish cousin, Ruth, trumps her skepticism. Along with her significant other, Simon, and Ruth, Lily undertakes another
Lily Kovner's first reaction to the news that a precious Torah has gone missing from the home of a Chinese government official in Shanghai is disbelief. She scoffs at her nickname, "the Jewish Miss Marple," and rejects the prospect that she could be instrumental in recovering the Torah. Yet, Lily's devotion to her newfound Chinese-Jewish cousin, Ruth, trumps her skepticism. Along with her significant other, Simon, and Ruth, Lily undertakes another improbable quest plagued by threats, dangerous physical attack, and a likely murder. Ultimately, political intrigue stemming from China's strife-ridden pre-Communist era, as well as long-buried resentments of an ancient community, emerge as motives that led to the Torah's theft, point to its perpetrators, and ultimately reveal a unique and little-known aspect of vibrant Jewish communal life that survived and thrived throughout a multi-century diaspora that stretched from Iraq to India to China.Binding Type: Paperback

May cause respiratory issues
Color: Mountains and Waters, Size: 4 Panel
The painting on this panel is beautiful and quality has held up BUT I’m almost certain this contributed to respiratory issues. It was next to my bed for a year and I recently noticed it’s still shedding red/brown dust. The wood was clearly painted over and it makes me skeptical about the wood that was used. The panel itself feels like it’s made cardboard. If you’re sensitive or plan to place this panel in a main living area, I would not recommend

Ideal to hide stuff.
Color: Mountains and Waters, Size: 6 Panel
A really decorative pice for privacy, but I will also purchase the feet separately for sturdiness.

Muted But Pretty!
Color: Mountains and Waters, Size: 3 Panel
Nice, sturdy 3-panel screen/room divider! However, could/should have been priced at $20-30 less. I like that it stands and folds easily, and there is not too much decoration or an exorbitant design. The colors are muted and would work well with many styles or color schemes. Personally, I wanted the wood frame to be a little lighter in color though.
