Book Review
The Luminous Heart of Jonah S
2014
Overview
Raphaels Son, a mega-wealthy Iranian Jew with many enemies, has been murdered. The story behind his odd name and his life of cruelty and revenge is labyrinthine and dramatic. It begins in 1950s Tehran, where the Soleyman clan prospers under the shah, even though Raphael, the oldest son, is strangely afflicted with an inexplicably glowing heart. He comes under the spell of an enigmatic older woman, who, years after his death, reappears with a boy she improbably claims is Raphaels son.
