Description
Moraes 'Moor' Zogoiby, the last heir to a powerful dynasty of spice merchants and crime lords, is a man caught between worlds and compelled to tell his story. His life unfolds as a sprawling, epic narrative filled with intense family feuds, passionate obsessions, and the echoes of ancient curses. From the vibrant streets of India to the historic landscapes of Spain, Moor's journey is a testament to a vanishing era, a poignant elegy for a world on the brink of change. This novel is a dazzling tapestry of satire, humor, and profound compassion, celebrating the richness of a unique heritage even as it bids it farewell.
