In them he warned of the false comforts of Jewish assimilation, laid bare the schism between Eastern and Western Jews, reflected on the concept of Jewish identity, and looked with foreboding at Germany’s future. The combined exigency and restrained contemplation of Roth’s writing have earned him comparisons to his more celebrated contemporaries Thomas Mann and Isaac Babel. Now brilliantly rendered by the award-wining translator Michael Hofmann, \u003cem\u003eThe Wandering Jews\u003c\/em\u003e offers a unique view of the European Jewish experience at a critical juncture of world history. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePaperback\u003cbr\u003e168 pages\u003cbr\u003eW.W.
