Bag om They that Walk in Darkness

""They that Walk in Darkness: Ghetto Tragedies"" is a collection of short stories written by Israel Zangwill. The book is set in the Jewish ghettos of London and explores the lives of the Jewish community during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The stories depict the struggles and hardships faced by the Jewish people, including poverty, discrimination, and anti-Semitism. The characters in the book are complex and multifaceted, and their stories are both heart-wrenching and inspiring. Zangwill's writing is powerful and evocative, and he skillfully captures the emotions and experiences of his characters. ""They that Walk in Darkness"" is a poignant and thought-provoking book that offers a unique perspective on the Jewish experience in London during this period.1899. The Ghetto Tragedies collected in a little volume in 1893 have been so submerged in the present collection that Zangwill relegated the original name in the subtitle. Anyone who wishes to measure the progress or decay of the author's imagination has these materials at hand. �������Noah's Ark������� stands on the firmer Ararat of history, Zangwill's invention being confined to the figure of Peloni (the Hebrew for �������nobody�������). The other stories also have a basis in life. But neither in pathos nor heroic stimulation can they vie with the literal tragedy with which the whole book is in a sense involved. This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
