«La familia Karnowsky» is the historical fiction novel by Israel Yehoshua Singer, published by Acantilado in paperback (560 pages, in Spanish).
The novel spans three generations of the Karnowskys, a Jewish family, and paints a fresco of the first half of the twentieth century. David leaves his Polish shtetl and settles in Berlin; his son Georg integrates until he becomes a renowned Berlin physician. Yegor, Georg's son, is born during Nazism, suffers antisemitism, and ends up in a hostile New York.
The novel, originally published in 1943, is volume 256 of Acantilado's Narrativa collection, translated from the Yiddish by Rhoda Henelde and Jacob Abecasís.
For readers of historical fiction and family sagas, particularly those seeking portraits of twentieth-century Europe and the Jewish experience.
