From the celebrated author of The Chosen & My Name Is Asher Lev, a trilogy of related novellas that encompasses some of the profoundest themes of the 20th century, about a woman whose life touches on three very different men. Ilana Davita Dinn is the listener to whom three men relate their lives. As a very young girl, she hears from an even younger boy--a survivor of the camps--the story of "The Ark Builder," an old, proud Jewish builder of synagogue arks, & what happened when the German army invaded his Polish town. As a novice teacher she is sent "The War Doctor," the narrative of a KGB agent who as a young man during the Russian civil war is saved by an idealistic doctor whom, decades later, he encounters again during the terrifying period of the Kremlin's doctors' plot. And finally, we meet her in "The Trope Teacher," in which a distinguished professor of warfare, trying to write his memoirs, is distracted by his wife's illness & by the arrival next door of a new neighbor, the famous writer I. D. (Ilana Davita) Chandal. Poignant & profound, Chaim Potok's newest fiction is a major addition to his remarkable--and remarkably loved--body of work.
