And she is living in a house of secrets, raised by a family who practices underground the ancient and mysterious way of wisdom known as kabbalah. When Estrella discovers her family's true identity--and her family's secrets are made public--she confronts a world she's never imagined, where new love burns and where friendship ends in flame and ash, where trust is all but vanquished and betrayal has tragic and bitter consequences. <p/> Winner of numerous "best book" citations and infused with the rich context of history and faith, Incantation is a transcendent journey of discovery and loss, rebirth and remembrance that Newbery Award-winning author Lois Lowry described as "Magical and spellbinding...Painful and exquisitely beautiful."<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><b>An ALA Best Book for Young Adults<br>A Publishers Weekly Best Book of the Year<br>An Association of Jewish Libraries Honor Book <br>An Entertainment Weekly Books We Loved This Year Selection<br>A Seattle Times Best Book for Kids and Teens<br>A Chicago Tribune Best Book of the Year<br>A New York Public Library Book for the Teen Age<br></b><br><br>[A] fascinating glimpse of a past civilization.--<i><b>Publishers Weekly (starred review)</b></i><br><br>[Has] great appeal to teens.--<i><b>KLIATT (starred review)</b></i><br><br>Riveting.--<i><b>School Library Journal (starred review)</b></i><br><br>Timeless.--<i><b>Kirkus</b></i><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Alice Hoffman</b> is the <i>New York Times</i> bestselling author of more than 15 acclaimed novels beloved by teens and adults, from <i>Green Angel, Indigo, </i>and<i> Aquamarine </i>to<i> The Ice Queen, Here on Earth</i> (an Oprah Book Club selection), and <i>Practical Magic</i>, which was made into a major motion picture starring Nicole Kidman and Sandra Bullock.
