About this product

Product Information

Every few decades a book is published that shapes Jewish consciousness. One thinks of Wiesel's Night or Levi's Survival in Auschwitz. But in 1927, years before these works were written, Joseph Roth (1894-1939) composed The Wandering Jews. In these stunning dispatches written when Roth was a correspondent in Berlin during the whirlwind period of Weimar Germany, he warned of the false comforts of Jewish assimilation, laid bare the schism between Eastern and Western Jews, and at times prophesied the horrors posed by Nazism. The Wandering Jews remains as vital today as when it was first published. [A] book of impassioned reportage and polemic...it is impossible t to feel a sympathetic wonder. -Michael Andre Bernstein, The New Republic In these disturbing yet strikingly illuminating pages, the truth of Jewish destiny from long ago vibrates and sings... -Elie Wiesel No other writer...has come so close to achieving the wholeness that Lukacs cites as our impossible aim. -Nadine Gordimer What a marvelous writer! Read him w. You can thank me later.-Michael Dirda, Washington Post Book World [C]aptures and encapsulates Europe in those uncertain hours before the upheaval of a continent and the annihilation of a civilization. -Cynthia Ozick, author of Quarrel and Quandary[A] writer well worth adding to the short list of giants such as Thomas Mann, Elie Wiesel, and Primo Levi. -Hadassah Magazine, Sanford Pinsker
