Transported by the power of music to her ancestral home in the old Jewish quarter of Baghdad, the author encounters its ghostlike inhabitants who are revealed as long-gone family members. As she explores the city, journeying through their memories and her imagination, she at first sees successful integration, and cultural and social cohesion. Then the mood turns darker with the fading of this ancient community's fortunes.
