Singer Isaac Bashevis; Schwartz Rosaline Dukalsky translator
Scum
New York Ny.: Farrar Straus & Giroux. Very Good 1991. Paperback. Unrevised proof essential for collector or completist. Usually mail within 12 hours. ; 9.25 x 0.75 x 6.25; 217 pages; A fascinating novel about a lost world July 11 1999 Reviewer: derbyram~hotmailcom from London. Singer and his translator manages with beautiful easy-to-read prose to evoke a lost world. His sketches of the people & places in the Jewish quarter of Warsaw c 1906 are memorable & convincing. I was conscious that the city was flattened in the 1940s & 6/7 of Polish Jews were murdered during the Nazi occupation - i. E. A stark dark line through history cut Max's world off from today's Poland. Max recalls the assimilated Spanish speaking Jewish community in Argentina & the ultra-conservative village in Western Poland where he grew up - & to which he is forever planning to return. He observes the pious Warsaw families in their detailed preparations for the Sabbath - but also the other Jews the thieves pimps whores who live in the same street & the middle class Jews in their large apartments a few blocks away. This community speaks a different language from the millions of Poles that surround them & is loathed by many of the hosts. Singer makes occasional reference to the pogroms anti-Semitism the Russian occupation but it is not an overtly political novel. It concentrates on the street life in the ghetto & specifically on the character of Max. Manic mad Max can't help getting into trouble. He lurches from one messy encounter to the next creating new dangers for himself even before the previous one was resolved. He has a wife in Argentina yet promises himself to several women in his first few days Warsaw. His treatment of women is appalling yet by highlighting his protagonist's self-awareness self-loathing his profound grief over his lost son his occasional moments of kindness his guilt & conscience Singer will endear his extraordinary creation to many readers. Max is deeply lonely & Singer explains much of his bizarre behaviour with reference to his desperate need to avoid being alone with his despair. Singer creates both a strong multi-dimensional central character & a powerful sense of place with stark economical prose� From Publishers Weekly: Written 2 decades ago but never published in English this culturally rich but oddly uninvolving novel features a typical Singer protagonist caught in the dichotomy betw the dictates of religion & his sensual nature. "Scum" refers both to 47-yr Max Barabander & the Jewish underworld of Warsaw to which he returns in 1906 after a 23-yr absence. In Buenos Aires where he had fled as a juvenile delinquent to make his fortune his 17-year-old son has just died leading to his wife's breakdown & his impotence. His trip at once a pathetic attempt at rejuvenation & a response to a midlife crisis results in his disastrous involvement with 4 women: Tsirele a poor rabbi's daughter; Reyzl mistress of the local gang leader who nets him in a scheme to import prostitutes to Buenos Aires; their first target Basha a servant girl; & the clairvoyant Madame Theresa. Hating himself for these deceitful liaisons Max resolves to flee but in the process he accidentally shoots one thus ending as he began a convict. Max's existential dilemma often seems contrived. C 1991 Reed. From Library Jour Shady Max Barabander a Polish Jew forsakes his adopted home of Argentina afterhis teenage son suddenly dies & his wife loses interest in living. He goes back to Poland ostensibly to visit the graves of his parents. Instead he finds companionship in the criminal underworld of Warsaw. Max seeks out women for his sexual salvation & to escape the constant fear he has of imprisonment & isolation. He becomes involved with a prostitute a baker's wife & a rabbi's daughter & others who see him as a means of escaping the legal & societal subjugation they experience in the Poland of 1906. Max deceives them all & his deceptions--which reflect his spiritual anarchy--lead to violence. That Singer is a master storyteller is evident in this compelling--and quite modern--tale. .
