Publisher's summary

Mendel Singer ist ein jüdischer Bibellehrer im Russland des Zaren. Stets bemüht, den Gesetzen Gottes zu gehorchen, tut er sein Möglichstes, um für seine Familie zu sorgen. Doch nicht nur die Epilepsie seines jüngsten Sohnes stellt seinen Glauben auf eine harte Probe - Familie Singer erleidet immer neue Schicksalsschläge, die Mendels Frömmigkeit zutiefst erschüttern.
Als sich die politische Situation in Russland zuspitzt, emigriert die Familie Anfang des 20. Jahrhunderts in die USA. Erwartet sie dort die Wende zum Guten?

Joseph Roths bewegende Adaption des Buchs Hiob wird ungekürzt gelesen von Hans Paetsch.

A gift for language comparable to Nabokov

Wonderful. Tender and harsh, evocative and precise, a story of the old world and the new, marriage, children, hardship, loss of faith, joy.
