Jonah (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781419127892)

""Jonah"" is a novel written by Louis Stone. It tells the story of Jonah, a young Jewish man who grows up in a poor family in Russia. Jonah is a bright and ambitious boy, but his family's circumstances prevent him from pursuing his dreams. When Jonah's father dies, he decides to leave his hometown and start a new life in Australia. In Australia, Jonah faces many challenges as he tries to make a living and adapt to a new culture. He works hard and eventually becomes a successful businessman, but he also faces discrimination and prejudice from the Australian community. Throughout the novel, Jonah struggles with his identity as a Jewish man in a non-Jewish society. He also grapples with his relationships with his family members and his romantic partners. ""Jonah"" is a poignant and thought-provoking novel that explores themes of identity, family, and cultural assimilation. It offers a unique perspective on the immigrant experience and the challenges faced by those who try to build a new life in a foreign land.And suddenly, with a contraction at his heart, a fear and dread of Jonah swept through Paasch, the vague, primeval distrust and suspicion of the deformed that lurks in the normal man, a survival of the ancient hostility that in olden times consigned them to the stake as servants of the Evil One.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
