En el contexto de la Polonia del siglo XVII, Jacob, un erudito judío, es vendido como esclavo tras las masacres de Chmielnicki. En su cautiverio, se enamora de Wanda, una mujer gentil, un amor prohibido por las rígidas normas de sus respectivas comunidades. A través de los ojos de Jacob, Singer narra la historia del asentamiento judío en Polonia, explorando temas de fe, amor y redención en tiempos de adversidad. Una historia conmovedora de un hombre dividido entre su lealtad a su pueblo y su amor por una forastera.
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. He wrote and published first in Yiddish and later translated his own works into English with the help of editors and collaborators. He was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1978. 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).
