Krátky popis
In the mid-eighteenth century, as new ideas begin to sweep the
continent, a young Jew of mysterious origins arrives in a village
in Poland. Before long, he has changed not only his name but his
persona, visited by what seem to be ecstatic experiences, Jacob
Frank casts a charismatic spell that attracts an increasingly
fervent following. In the decade to come, Frank will traverse the
Hapsburg and Ottoman empires, throngs of disciples in his thrall as
he reinvents himself again and again, converts to Islam and then
Catholicism, is pilloried as a heretic and revered as the Messiah,
and wreaks havoc on the conventional order, Jewish and Christian
alike, with scandalous rumours of his sect’s secret rituals and the
spread of his increasingly iconoclastic beliefs.In The Books of
Jacob, her masterpiece, 2018 Nobel Prize in Literature laureate
Olga Tokarczuk writes the story of Frank through the perspectives
of his contemporaries, capturing Enlightenment Europe on the cusp
of precipitous change, searching for certainty and longing for
transcendence.&,nbsp,
