Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

Paperback. Part of Aleksandar Tisma's lauded Novi Sad Trilogy, The Book of Blam is a classic of Holocaust literature and a searing portrait of what it means to survive. Tisma's antihero is a Job untouched by grace, a man who lives but who has lost everything in the process, and it is his unwavering perpsective that makes Tisma's novel tremendously important.The Book of Blam, Aleksandar Tisma's "extended kaddish . . . his masterpiece" (Kirkus Reviews), is a modern-day retelling of the book of Job. The war is over. Miroslav Blam walks along the former Jew Street, and he remembers. He remembers Aaron Gr n, the hunchbacked watchmaker; and Eduard Fiker, a lamp merchant; and Jakob Mentele, a stove fitter; and Arthur Spitzer, a grocer, who played amateur soccer and had non-Jewish friends; and Sandor Vertes, a lawyer who was a Communist. All dead. As are his younger sister and his best friend, a Serb, both of whom joined the resistance movement; and his mother and father in the infamous Novi Sad raid in January 1942-when the Hungarian Arrow Cross executed 1,400 Jews and Serbs on the banks of the Danube and tossed them into the river.Blam lives. The war he survived will never be over for him. The war is over. Miroslav Blam walks along the former Jew Street, and he remembers. He remembers Aaron Grun, the hunchbacked watchmaker; and Eduard Fiker, a lamp merchant; and Jakob Mentele, a stove fitter; and Arthur Spitzer, a grocer, who played amateur soccer and had non-Jewish friends; and Sandor Vertes, a lawyer who was a Communist. All dead. Shipping may be from our Sydney, NSW warehouse or from our UK or US warehouse, depending on stock availability.
