“‘Safekeeping,’ Jessamyn Hope’s luminous, irreverent, and ambitious first novel, shows how a single item — a medieval brooch made by a Jewish artisan for his wife — connects people across time and history. Full of romance, tragedy, betrayal, and the constant reminder that chaos is a driving force in everyone’s story, ‘Safekeeping’ is a wise and memorable debut by a novelist of great talent and originality.”
