Quatrième de couverture
'A gripping parable of reason versus revelation, hysteria in the face of apocalypse' Guardian
The pogrom that swept through Poland was interpreted as a sign of the Coming of the Lord. In the little town of Goray, laid waste by murder and famine, grief becomes joy as good news arrives of the second coming of the Messiah. Once the town's pious rabbi is usurped, the townspeople are free to look forward to the End of Days, when they will wear golden jackets and dine on marzipan candy. But such perilously high hopes pave the way to hysteria, and a panic which could threaten the very existence of Goray.
'Whatever religion his writing inhabits, it is blazing with life and actuality' Ted Hughes, New York Review of Books
