One man's faith is tested, lost and restored in this gem of a novel by 20th century Jewish Austrian writer Joseph Roth.
Mendel Singer, a Jewish-Orthodox schoolteacher, lives in early 20th century Galicia. A modern-day Job, he is subjected to one misfortune after another. As a result of these terrible trials, Mendel Singer's worldview shatters, along with his belief in God's benign omnipotence.
Only a miracle can now restore his faith.
