Description

Based on a true story of four generations, the action moves from the Middle East to Gibraltar, London and Lisbon. The title comes from a treasure - a teapot with a spout shaped like a camel's head. The narrative is in two interweaving strands: Anna's story from 1944 - 1976 and David's story starting in 1834. David Levy is orphaned in a disaster in Safed in 1837. Thirty years later he is in England hosting a society ball. His granddaughter Anna finds notebooks showing glimpses of a hundred years of family life, but behind the apparent calm lies a story of deception and betrayal. The novel is woven round the roots of the author's family. - from Amzon
