Miriam Feinberg Vamosh
The Scroll is a multi-generational historical novel about the survivors of Masada that draws from a real archaeological find â€“ the divorce document of a real-life woman named Miriam. The document was issued at Masada in 71 C.E., and discovered in the lower chamber of a Bedouin cave in Wadi Murabbaâ€˜at in the Judean Desert in 1951. The story begins on Masadaâ€™s final, horrific day. It characters must choose between nation and family, and finally, between life and death. Will they learn the lesson of Masadaâ€™s downfall, or will enemies --- within and without --- rob it from them? Though it deals with events that took place two millennia ago, The Scroll helps us make sense of the complexities of todayâ€™s Israel and the choices its leaders make.
