About this book

The rediscovery of the works of the Galician writer Soma Morgenstern only took place after his death. They are marked by the quest for identity embarked on by Jewish intellectuals in the 20th century. Exiled in America after the Shoah, Morgenstern turned away from Christian Europe, attributing to it the religious blame for the Holocaust. "Die Blutsäule" is, however, written in idiosyncratic German, with many reminiscences of the language of the Bible. Given that this was also the language of the 'hated' perpetrators of the Holocaust, the complexion of the novel is intricate indeed. The study reconstructs its religious, historical, and literary background.
