Maggiori informazioni sul libro

In every generation, Jewish tradition holds that thirty-six "just men" are born to bear the world's suffering. This powerful novel recounts the story of Ernie Levy, the last of the just, who perished at Auschwitz in 1943. Written by a largely self-educated young man whose French was learned on the streets, this book became a global literary sensation upon its release. French critics hailed it as a "great novel" and one of the most significant works of its time, while the public's response was overwhelming, with sales surpassing 400,000 copies in just five months. The jury for France's prestigious Prix Goncourt even advanced the award date to ensure it received the recognition it deserved. The narrative, a poignant drama of Jewish suffering, martyrdom, and transformation, spans from a twelfth-century pogrom to a gas chamber, captivating readers with its strength, warmth, simplicity, humor, and deep understanding of humanity. Often described as an epic, it has the potential to achieve lasting significance, akin to works like The Wall and The Diary of Anne Frank. This book is destined to be read, discussed, and remembered by many for years to come.
