When a sleepless night drives him to synagogue one morning, he stumbles onto something he never learned at business school: a Jewish blueprint for thinking, living, and succeeding that operates completely outside the rules he was taught. As David begins to rethink success, pressure, and identity through the heritage he never understood, something ancient awakens inside him. Not just calm, power. Not just relief, real strength.

Count Moïse de Camondo lived a few doors away from Edmund de Waal's forebears, the Ephrussi, first encountered in his best-selling memoir The Hare with Amber Eyes. Like the Ephrussi, the Camondos were part of Belle Epoque high society. They were also targets of anti-Semitism.

Jonathan Sacks was an outstanding moral authority of our time and bestselling author of The Dignity of Difference. One of Judaism’s most distinctive and challenging ideas is its ethics of responsibility. We have been given the gift of freedom and we in turn have to honour and enhance the freedom of others.
