- Summary
- "First published in Argentina in 1994, this novel is a detective story in which the police try to solve an assassination and a lost man tries to reconstruct his identity. These two searches are set against the story of four generations of a Jewish family, a social and cultural narrative that spans nearly a hundred years of cataclysmic events of the century including World War I, the Russian and Cuban revolutions, the birth of the state of Israel, and the military dictatorship in Argentina.".
- "Identity - personal, cultural, historical - is the main theme of this novel, as is the experience of being "other.""--BOOK JACKET.
