Interior text pages are bright, tight, and white. This is the 1945 Fourth Impression Edition. Theodor Herzl born in 1860 in Budapest, Hungary and died July 3, 1904. He was the founder of the political form of Zionism, a movement to establish a Jewish homeland. His pamphlet The Jewish State 1896 proposed that the Jewish question was a political question to be settled by a world council of nations. He organized a world congress of Zionists that met in Basel, Switzerland, in August 1897 and became first president of the World Zionist Organization, established by the congress. Although Herzl died more than 40 years before the establishment of the State of Israel, he was an indefatigable organizer, propagandist, and diplomat who had much to do with making Zionism into a political movement of worldwide significance.

Issued without a dust jacket. -- This is a brilliant and beguiling follow up to "The Old Child" for a writer of originality who deserves to be in the same league as Ali Smith and Safran Foer.This title is intended for anyone who relishes boldness, allegory and a twist in the telling: fans of the fiction of George Saunders, Judy Budnitz, Gina Ochsner, Margaret Atwood and Siri Hustvedt.The unnamed narrator of the 'book of words' has a dark past and with these words - carefully chosen and dropped like a trail through a forest - the reader is compelled to tread with her the uncertain and spiky terrain of memory. First there is her childhood. She was raised by a wet nurse, who took the place that should have been filled by her ever-distant mother. Then her school days: a piano teacher, a gardener, and her friend Anna, whose mind is filled with violent fantasies. And, all the while in the background, her father - a man full of knowledge and an idealised hero, until she realises that the world she has grown up in has begun to grind to a halt. Public transport is stopped, businesses are closed, and figures from her childhood disappear one after another - the regime is tightening its grip and it seems that her father is right at its centre.…
