67. MzVibe.com Review of naomi ragen's The Ghost of Hannah Mendes By Jodi Werner When wealthy Manhattansocialite Catherine da Costa learns she will die within a few short http://www.mzvibe.com/issue_2/mzread2.shtml

"I believe that what I take from my Irish heritage makes me a better Jew." Writer and Activist Charlotte Honigman-Smith Review of Naomi Ragen's The Ghost of Hannah Mendes By Jodi Werner When Francesca and Suzanne (the granddaughters) get to Europe, they meet two handsome men (straight from the pages of any good romance novelemotionally giving, ambitious, with the most uncanny of careers), and the book becomes a guilty pleasure. Only, it has Jewish culture, historical backdrops, and a big touch of class to boot. While Ragen's other books, Jephte's Daughter, Sotah, and The Sacrifice of Tamar grab readers from their opening sentences, The Ghost of Hannah Mendes takes more time to settle in. There's a more complex plot structure involved and the reader must do a bit of work at first. But a hundred or so pages in, and the story begins to pick up. Before the reader knows it, she's finished. Ragen is a skilled researcher. She deftly creates fictional worlds that ring true. In Jephte's Daughter, The Sacrifice of Tamar, and Sotah, it was the ultra-orthodox communities of New York and Jerusalem. In Hannah Mendes it's Sephardic Jewry since the Inquisition. Though the research occasionally feels like textbook material being forced into the mouths of characters, readers learn a great deal about a lifestyle different from their own, and enjoy themselves in the process.

This novel is ambitious in another way. She has looked into another inadequately explored area of Jewish life, the period of the Spanish Inquisition, and attempted to bring it to life. A second theme of the book is the continuity of family tradition in general, and Jewish tradition in particular. Each of these ideas are worthy, however the presentation is not good enough. The character of Hannah Mendes is truly a fascinating one, all the more so because she was a real person. I would welcome a fictionalized or more modern biography of Hannah/Gracia that would satisfy our craving for more details and provide a deeper look into that period.

The Ghost of Hannah Mendes by Naomi Ragen ISBN: 0-312-28125-0 When elderly Catherine da Costa, a wealthy Manhattan matron, learns she has only a short time to live, she realizes that the family tree will die unless she transfers its legacy to her granddaughters. But Suzanne and Francesca, modern young women in their twenties caught up in trendy environmental causes and ambitious careers, have no interest either in her, or in the past. Catherine almost despairs until, falling asleep before her fireplace, she is visited by the family matriarch, an indomitable Renaissance businesswoman (and true historical figure) named Hannah Mendes, who offers her a partnership. At the ghost's bidding, Catherine manages to temporarily detach her granddaughters from their New York lives, sending them on a magical journey through England, Spain and Venice in search of an ancient manuscript, Hannah's own handwritten memoirs. The trip to humor their grandmother takes on serious new meaning to both girls, as manuscript pages begin to show up, forcing the girls into a powerful encounter with their heritage that will forever challenge their view of their past, their present, and their future.

Naomi Ragen's four previous novels dealt with Orthodox Jews and their personal problems and struggles. These novels were intensely human, very frank and controversial. In a departure from these themes, Ragen's new novel, "Chains Around the Grass," focuses on the unfortunate Markowitz family and their myriad personal problems. The time is the 1950's and David Markowitz, husband of Ruth, and father of three children, is again forcing the family to move, for the fourth time in ten years. He is a dreamer who thinks that one day he will strike it rich, and his family will then have the life that they deserve. For the time being, however, the Markowitz family is moving into a low-income housing project in Far Rockaway, Queens, while David plies his trade as a taxicab driver.
