En el año 1911, Keyle, una prostituta judía, conoce a Yarme, un ex convicto, y se enamoran. Juntos sueñan con escapar del gueto de Varsovia, donde viven bajo la amenaza constante de los pogromos. Cuando Max, un viejo conocido, les ofrece participar en un negocio lucrativo en Sudamérica, no lo dudan. Sin embargo, Max también se siente atraído por Yarme, lo que desata un triángulo amoroso que atormentará a Keyle tanto en las calles del gueto como en una gran ciudad estadounidense. En esta novela, Isaac Bashevis Singer retrata los bajos fondos de la comunidad judía con personajes únicos, creando un fresco vívido de una sociedad y una época.
Isaac Bashevis Singer was a Polish-born Jewish American novelist, short-story writer, memoirist, essayist, and translator in the United States. Some of his works were adapted for the theater.

A leading figure in the Yiddish literary movement, he was awarded two U.S. National Book Awards, one in Children's Literature for his memoir A Day of Pleasure: Stories of a Boy Growing Up in Warsaw (1970) and one in Fiction for his collection A Crown of Feathers and Other Stories (1974).
