AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Eugene Sue - The Jewish Wanderer - Amsterdam, M.H. Binger, 1844 - 7 parts in 3 volumes - 233 + 249 pages / 220 + 257 pages / 183 + 243 + 249 pages - 22.5 x 13.5 cm
The book follows a mysterious Jewish traveler who roams through Europe and uncovers hidden injustices, wrongdoings, and social issues wherever he appears.
He acts as a kind of moral mirror: his encounters reveal the hypocrisy, corruption, and cruelty of society.
The novel consists of multiple storylines (divided over 7 parts) that cross and reinforce each other. Typical elements:
The 'Jewish walker' is a silent, enigmatic figure with seemingly supernatural knowledge of people and situations. He appears at crucial moments and influences the fate of others.
Sue uses the character to deliver sharp criticism of poverty and exploitation, abuse of power, and religious hypocrisy.
condition: reasonable
Bound in original marbled half-leather bindings. These have damage to the spine and covers. The hinge of the first book is torn at the bottom. Contains 18 of the 20 engravings. Very rare and sought after.
