It is set in medieval France and describes how three magical children meet each other and become outlaws. It was named a Newbery Honor book in 2017. Plot summaryThe novel is told by multiple narrators, all travelers at the Holy Cross-Roads Inn near Paris, set in early March 1242. Marie, a brewer from the town of Saint-Geneviève, starts the story of Jeanne and the greyhound Gwenforte. The second hero, William, is introduced by a monk who serves as the librarian at the Monastery Saint-Martin. Jacob, the third, is introduced by Aron, the butcher in Nogent-sur-Oise. Each narrator is prompted to tell their tale by their fellow travelers; as a framing device, the Inn sequences are told from the perspective of Étienne, an agent of the Pope's Holy Inquisition. The three children each have a different power. Jeanne is able to see future events, William has tremendous size and physical strength, and Jacob can heal the sick. They are pursued by King Louis IX and his agents after interfering with the events following Disputation of Paris, when thousands of copies of the Talmud were burned. DevelopmentGidwitz is married to Lauren Mancia, a professor of medieval history at Brooklyn College.[1] They travel to Europe every year for her research, where Gidwitz began to collect tales from medieval times, including an episode from the life of Saint Martha, who vanquished a flatulent dragon.[2] He learned of the burning of the Talmuds in 1242 from a plaque in the Musée d'Art et d'Histoire du Judaïsme in Paris, and was further inspired by the Bayeux Tapestry.[1] ReceptionIn 2017, the American Library Association named The Inquistor's Tale to its list of Newbery Honor winners, alongside Ashley Bryan's Freedom Over Me and Lauren Wolk's Wolf Hollow.[3] References1. ^1 {{cite interview |url=https://www.publishersweekly.com/pw/by-topic/childrens/childrens-authors/article/71596-q-a-with-adam-gidwitz.html |title=Q & A with Adam Gidwitz |interviewer=Sue Corbett |date=September 27, 2016 |subject=Adam Gidwitz |work=Publishers Weekly |accessdate=16 March 2019}} 2. ^{{cite interview |url=https://www.axs.com/interview-author-and-musician-adam-gidwitz-to-stage-theatrical-musical-114623 |title=Interview: Author and musician Adam Gidwitz to stage theatrical musical book reading at Symphony Space |interviewer=Meagan Meehan |date=February 14, 2017 |subject=Adam Gidwitz |work=AXS |accessdate=16 March 2019}} 3. ^{{cite press release |url=http://www.ala.org/news/press-releases/2017/01/american-library-association-announces-2017-youth-media-award-winners |title=American Library Association announces 2017 youth media award winners |date=January 30, 2017 |publisher=American Library Association |accessdate=16 March 2019}} External links
