A critique of the Hebrew writer Shmuel Yosef Agnon's seminal novel "A Simple Story" which argues that Agnon was essentially a Jewish nationalist and secular modernist whose novels manifest a deep understanding of the social and political crisis at the heart of modern Jewish life.
Not a Simple Story presents the modern Hebrew writer Shmuel Yosef Agnon in a new light-as an artist cum thinker whose novels and short stories manifest a deep understanding of the social and political crisis at the heart of modern Jewish life. Based on a close reading of Agnon''s seminal novel A Simple Story, Sharon Green''s scholarly critique offers students of Jewish studies a unique opportunity to penetrate the literary enigma Agnon has represented for almost a century.
