Items related to The Book Of Israel
Dunsk, Lithuania, 1874: brought home dying from the mill, an old man leaves his new grandson the only thing of value he owns - his name. In one Jewish family, the forename Israel is handed down from generation to generation. But as parts of the family move across the world - beginning in Lithuania at the end of the 19th century and finishing in London at the beginning of the 21st - different Israels in different countries have very different relationships with the name and the weighty expectations it represents.

Synopsis:
'As rich in substance as it is bold in structure, this is a deeply engaging book' -- Michael Arditti, THE TIMES
By bringing out the comic and quotidian in 130 years of Jewish history, Gavron paints a fresh portrait of a dissipating identity. He tells the story of the members of one Jewish family, described in the letters, journals and speeches of the people around them.
