Summary:

A leading critic of Polish literature, Artur Sandauer (1913-1989), takes a hard look at the critical role that Jews and individuals of Jewish descent played as both creators and objects of literature and culture in twentieth-century Poland. Through an engaging series of essays, Sandauer analyzes major figures in Polish literature via the prism of one central, if at times muted, issue: "the Jews." Written during the period of martial law, Sandauer's work stands as a testimony to the power of the written word, as well as the renaissance in Jewish studies in contemporary Poland.
