Laish, by aharon Appelfeld , is a novel that slowly weaves its way through the pages, depicting a six-wagon caravan of Ukranian individuals wandering through Eastern Europe, trying to make their way to Jerusalem. It is a tapestry that, in many ways, can be compared to the exodus of the Jews from Egypt. What one has to do in order to survive and reach their goal is a testament to their courage, and to their physical and spiritual endurance. There is a constant ritual that occurs each day within this Jewish caravan, from praying to eating, always being mindful of their spirituality and need for tradition and education. This is one of Appelfeld’s messages…within the darkness, struggles, and adversity, there is light at the end of the journey. Laish, the novel, is a testament to endurance and overcoming adversity. It is not a fast read or page-turner, but a book of clear reflection within the sentences that often have loose ends or are choppy. Aharon Appelfeld has delivered a strong message within the simplicity of the written word. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
A caravan of Jews wanders through Eastern Europe at the end of the nineteenth century on a heartbreaking quest. Spiritual seekers and the elderly, widows and orphans, the sick and the dying, con artists and adventurers, victims of pogroms who have no place else to go, they are all on a pilgrimage to the Holy Land, but the journey is filled with unexpected detours and unanticipated disaster.

I do think he tells the same story over and over but that doesn't bother me. ( )
