Sorrowful Eyes of Hannah Karajich

Informationen zum Autor Ivan Olbracht (1882-1952) was a Czech novelist and journalist. His best known novels carry Freudian overtones. Although not his homeland, Ruthenia, the easternmost, backward and rural part of what was then Czechoslovakia motivated Olbracht to create sophisticated contemporary ballads, modern myths with folkore elements. Klappentext Hannah is the most beautiful girl in an orthodox Jewish village in the remote province of Sub-Carpathian Ruthenia. Involvement in the exciting new movement of Zionism takes her away to a near-by town. There she meets and falls in love with the strangely named Ivo Karajich: a Jew, yet not a Jew.
