Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. These stories span the lifetime of a quintessential wandering Jew - born in Buczacz, Poland, living in Germany, and finally settling in Jerusalem - and they bring to life the full gamut of the modern Jewish experience in fiction.This broad selection of Agnon's fiction introduces the full sweep of the writer's panoramic vision as chronicler of the lost world of Eastern European Jewry and the emerging society of modern Israel. Here are stories that portray the richly textured culture of traditional Jewish life in Poland, as well as changes in the life of the community over time.Several stories reflect on the Jewish infatuation with German and Western culture in the interwar period: "On The Road", for example, narrates an eerie encouter on the eve of a holy day between an itinerant Jew and a ghostly company of martyred Jews from the Crusades. The early years of Jewish settlement in the land of Israel are recalled in Hill of Sand, which is also a revealing portrait of the artist as a young man; "A Book That was Lost" is a powerful metaphor for the writer's own journey from Buczacz to Jerusalem. Includes stories that span the lifetime of a quintessential wandering Jew - born in Buczacz, Poland, living in Germany, and finally settling in Jerusalem - and brings to life the full gamut of the modern Jewish experience in fiction.

Expanded edition, including all stories from the Twenty-one Stories / edited with introductions by Alan Mintz & Anne Golomb Hoffman, additional stories edited by Nahum N. Glatzer; preface by Jonathan Rosen. New Milford: The Toby Press, 2008. Paperback, VG+. Minimal shelfwear to corners. Binding strong and square. 588pp., contents clean and bright. Shmuel Yosef Agnon was one of the central figures of modern Hebrew fiction. His works deal with the conflict between the traditional Jewish life and language and the modern world. They also attempt to recapture the fading traditions of the European shtetl (village). In a wider context, he also contributed to broadening the characteristic conception of the narrator's role in literature. Agnon had a distinctive linguistic style mixing modern and rabbinic Hebrew. In 1966, he shared the Nobel Prize in Literature with the poet Nelly Sachs. RightWayUp Books aims to provide accurate and detailed descriptions.
