A mesmerizing debut novel that spans a thousand years of European and Jewish history seen through the beguiling members of the Spinoza familySince the eleventh century, the Spinoza family has passed down, from father to son, a secret manuscript containing the recipe for immortality. Now, after thirtysix generations, the last descendant of this long and illustrious chain, Ari Spinoza, doesnt have a son to whom to entrust the manuscript. From his deathbed, he begins his narrative, hoping to save his lineage from oblivion.Aris two main sources of his familys history are a trunk of yellowing documents inherited from his grandfather, and his greatuncle Fernandos tales that captivated him when he was a child. He chronicles the Spinozas involvement in some of Europes most formative cultural events with intertwining narratives that move through ages of tyranny, creativity, and social upheaval: into medieval Portugal, Grand inquisitor TorquemadasSpain, Rembrandts Amsterdam, the French Revolution, Freuds Vienna, and the horrors of both world wars.The Elixir of Immortality blends truth and fiction as it rewrites European history through comic, imaginative, scandalous, and tragic tales that prove the only thing that can possibly give human beings immortality on this earth: our ability to remember.
