Rob

Rob

Isak Baševis Singer

The love story of the slave Jakov and the village girl Wanda forms the basis of this book, which is read differently, depending on the part of the world where it is on the table.

Religious motifs often burden the novel, but the literary qualities of pure images draw the reader further.

Nobel laureate Isak Baševis Singer's novel ROB is made like a fresco in which rural motifs alternate, sometimes completely naturalistic (a woman is torn apart and a barking dog is placed in her stomach), sometimes moved to fantasy and Chagall's daydreams, then images of pogroms, descriptions of ritual ceremonies, warm words of love , a gentle development of the love game and the orgy of a village at the end of the world.
