A Jewish trader from Venice goes to South East Asia for business. Nothing happens! There is no story, Abraham is the drabbest character I've had to read about in a while. The story is told through letters he writes to his cousin, I didn't particularly enjoy that style of writing.

Overall...go read a different book...haha
