The world of Israel weissbrem: Between the times and : The lottery and the inheritance

---

Israel Weissbrem, whose complex themes were taken from the lives of educated and wealthy Jews of Eastern Europe at the end of the nineteenth century, and whose writings all but disappeared in the twentieth, wrote in a vein of melodrama and fantasy, with an ironic and frequently savage wit. His cast of characters is extraordinarily diverse and appears to reflect attitudes - toward the religious, the poor, the wealthy, toward Christians and anti-Semites - of which the author himself was uncertain and which appear to change, in the world of the novels, in subtle ways. In his later novels, Weissbrem is concerned with the cause of Jewish nationalism and the lot of the Jewish people in Poland, which is to say, in part, with the invidious horrors of anti-Semitism. Weissbrem was both a Jew and a Polish patriot, he uses the novel as a forum for discussing the nature of Polish anti-Semitism, for defending his fellows against charges of usury and lack of interest in Polish national life.
