- Summary
- Daniel Evan Weiss took on the fierce conflict between humans and insects in his last book, The Roaches Have No King. Here he turns to the struggle between Jews and Christians joining together in holy matrimony. When Allison Pennybaker and Solomon Beneviste announce their engagement, the trouble begins: the Pennybakers plan a church wedding they can't afford, while Solomon's mother traces the bizarre Beneviste genealogy all the way back to the Spanish Inquisition as a nuptial present to the couple.
- This comic tragedy chronicles the ill-fated engagement as it slides into the chasm between the faiths, then crashes and burns.
