Antonio Pagliarulo explores the phenomenon of the Evil Eye: what it is, its origins and causes— and, most crucially, how to avoid, repel, and remove it.

• Defines the Evil Eye and traces its roots into antiquity and across an extraordinary breadth of cultures and traditions
• Shows readers how to diagnose the Evil Eye, how to cure it, and how to cast it on others
• Explores the use of amulets and talismans bearing the “Evil Eye,” including its remarkable prevalence in popular jewelry designs
• Includes the history and use of various talismans such as the Hamsa; the Italian cornicello and mano figa; the azabache stone; the Kabbalah red string; mirror pendants; and many others

Across infinite time and space, experiences and memories are passed on to us by the people we call family. We live with their palpable but unknowable significance.  This book is an invitation to write down your story. Or give it to someone whose story you want to remember for generations to come.
