Hardcover first edition deckle Edge pages copyright by author 1934- current ISBN-13: 978-1122120586- A curious fantasy of a race on the march, the Jews of the world exiled to the Gobi Desert. This is the story of their odyssey, of how the characteristics of generations come out, regardless of the tragedy that has befallen them. Petty quarrels, love, friendship, birth, death, marriage, ambition, plans for a future capitalistic state, plans for a communistic state, riots, all more are compact in the tragic story. There is relief in bits of rare beauty, in flashes of rather cynical humor, in insight into humanity at its best and worst. Austria, Poland, Russia, Asia -- the weary march takes its toll in human endurance. A book of underlying significance, not easy reading. -- see pictures maybe this will do it maybe it won't -Expedited Shipping available-by request/ price adjust-..Ruth Reaser..LAX Vespa shipped -United States Post to fulfill your order, Los Angeles I carefully pack your book,hop on my Vespa visit the PO to have it placed in our mail system.. your books wrapped,not co-mingled,you get the copy you were viewing.
