About This Novel
Yakov, a mechanic who was born as an orphan, is a decent man but ill-fated. He has no children. After his wife left with someone else, he went to the big city of Kiev to make a living alone. But it was not easy to open up a new life. While living in an area where Jews were not allowed to live, he was framed for killing a Christian boy. What followed were absurd accusations, an unreasonably long prison life, inhuman physical and mental torture, and Yaakov's consistent insistence on ideals and justice. In a plain yet slightly sarcastic tone, the author vividly describes the atrocities of the Tsarist government that quietly persecuted the Jews on trumped-up charges.
