Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. A sweeping multigenerational tale complicates traditional narratives as it follows two familiesone Moroccan, one Polishfilled with Zionists, anti-Zionists, socialists, and reactionaries. Spanning from 1932 to 1973, Nothing Vast delves deeply into the circumstances and concerns of Jews in cities across the globein Poland, France, Morocco, and the United Statesas well as in Israel. Giving voice to characters male and female, young and old, Moshe Zvi Marvit braids together stories of migration and struggle, of custom and superstition, of long-held secrets and lies. This beautifully crafted novel follows a survivor of sexual assault, a member of the French resistance, a dream interpreter, a petty criminal, and a venerated rabbi. Based on the experiences and traditions of the author's own half-Arab Jewish family, the book is rife with historical and cultural detail and with the intricacies of faith and identity, both personal and national. At the center of the novel is Israel itselfa place existing first in the collective imagination, then in reality as Marvit slips into nonfiction to document the establishment of the country and the reactions to its birth. The characters' experiences upon arrival in their new nation are vastly different: one family is given a large orange grove upon which to establish a Yeshiva, while the other, not accorded the same privileges, lives beneath notice. The story takes yet another twist when, years later, a grandchild of one of the founding rabbis, seeking answers, discovers the origin of his family's land. Visceral, intellectual, and searching, Nothing Vast is nothing short of a virtuosic debut. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
