Book excerpt: Monumental carved wooden Torah arks were an outstanding feature of east European synagogues between the seventeenth and the nineteenth centuries, yet virtually none survived the Second World War.

She is the first to paint a vivid portrait of their history and to offer a detailed explanation of the motifs that adorned them.
