Job

The Story of a Simple Man
A taut fable and one of Roth's most acclaimed novels, which follows pious and god-fearing Job from the ghettos of Tsarist Russia to the unforgiving streets of New York.
'Many years ago there lived in Zuchnow, in Russia, a man named Mendel Signer. He was pious, God-fearing and ordinary, an entirely commonplace Jew.'So Roth begins his novel about the loss of faith and the experience of suffering. His modern Job goes through his trials in the ghettos of Tsarist Russia and on the unforgiving streets of New York. Mendel Singer loses his family, falls terribly ill and is badly abused. He needs a miracle.
