Book Synopsis Guide to the Works of Isaac Bashevis Singer by : Maxine A. Hartley
Book excerpt: Sage, rabbi, mystic, prophet, historian, and storyteller: Isaac Bashevis Singer fulfills all these roles. With great sensitivity and insight, Guide to the Works of Isaac Bashevis Singer provides a succinct and instructive look at some of the main themes of Singer's writing: the relationship between God and mankind; the search for identity in a changing environment; the relationship of the modern Jew to the old/new homeland of Israel; and the Jewish question of faith in the modern secular world. Maxine A. Hartley's analysis provides a deeper understanding and appreciation for a literary figure who wanted only to be known as 'an honest writer.'
