Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. This first edition of Sacred Trash presents the remarkable story of the Cairo Geniza, an extraordinary cache of Jewish manuscripts preserved for a millennium and rediscovered at the end of the 19th century. Hoffman and Cole trace the lives of Solomon Schechter, Agnes Lewis, Margaret Gibson, and other scholars who painstakingly assembled, translated, and interpreted fragments that transformed Jewish historical study. Blending biography, cultural history, and archival adventure, the authors illuminate how these texts reshaped our understanding of medieval Mediterranean Jewish life. The narrative is richly detailed, gracefully written, and deeply informed by the authors' backgrounds as a cultural critic and a poet-translator.

Dust jacket bright and intact with no major tears; moderate wrinkling, creasing, and handling wear; interior flaps clean. Not price-clipped. Stated First Edition.

Adina Hoffman is an acclaimed essayist and cultural historian known for her deeply researched works on Middle Eastern history, literature, and memory. A recipient of a Windham-Campbell Prize, she is the author of House of Windows and My Happiness Bears No Relation to Happiness, the latter named one of the best books of the year by The Barnes & Noble Review. Her writing often explores the lives of overlooked or forgotten figures whose stories illuminate broader cultural worlds. Peter Cole, a MacArthur Fellow, is an award-winning poet and translator whose work bridges Hebrew and Arabic literary traditions. His translations, including The Dream of the Poem and The Poetry of Kabbalah, have earned him numerous honors for bringing medieval and modern texts to contemporary readers with clarity and lyricism.
