Item Details

Description

The Penitent by Isaac Bashevis Singer. Signed 1st Edition. PA: The Franklin Library, 1983. As-new condition.

The Penitent is a novel by Isaac Bashevis Singer which tells the story of Joseph Shapiro, a successful businessman who returns to his hometown of Lublin, Poland, to atone for his past sins. Set against the backdrop of World War II, the novel explores themes of guilt, redemption, and the search for meaning in a world torn apart by violence and tragedy. With his signature wit and wisdom, Singer weaves a complex and emotionally resonant tale that will stay with readers long after they turn the final page. The Penitent is a masterpiece of modern literature, and this signed first edition is a true treasure for collectors and fans of Singer's work.
