LA VITTIMA

1978 — DISPONIBILITÀ GARANTITA AL 99%; SPEDIZIONE ENTRO 12 ORE DALL'ORDINE. ANCORA IMBALLATO, NUOVO: POSSIBILI LIEVI SEGNI DEL TEMPO. Pubblicato nel 1947, a soli due anni dalla fine della guerra e nel paranoico clima del maccartismo, La vittima racconta di Asa Leventhal, quarantenne borghese ebreo di New York che, in un'estate dalla calura opprimente e in un momento delicato della propria vita familiare, incontra per caso un vecchio conoscente, Kirby Allbee. Costui lo accusa di essere la causa delle proprie disgrazie e inizia a molestarlo, fino a perseguitarlo in maniera ossessiva. In un crescendo di tensione, e in un dramma dell'identità nel quale i due personaggi incarnano alternativamente il ruolo del persecutore e della vittima, Leventhal esamina a fondo la propria responsabilità e il proprio senso di colpa (che è poi il sentimento degli ebrei americani rimasti indenni - a differenza di quelli europei - dallo sterminio), con un passaggio dal piano contingente e privato a quello storico-sociale e mistico-esistenziale.
