About the Book

Adam Stein had been one of the most popular clowns in Germany during the 1930s. A Jewish man, he was placed in a concentration camp, where he was spared his life in exchange for subduing and entertaining thousands of prisoners who were on their way to the gas chambers. Now Adam works in a psychiatric hospital for Holocaust survivors located in the Negev desert. Adam s constant defiance of the hospital s authority and his disturbing renditions of the past shake the foundation to its core. Saner than the doctors and crazier than the patients, Adam struggles constantly to comprehend the meaning of a world in which the line between sanity and lunacy has been irrevocably erased. This book is one of the most significant Hebrew novels about the Holocaust, and Yoram Kaniuk s masterpiece.

Adan Stein habia sido uno de los payasos mas populares de Alemania durante los anos treinta. De origen judio, fue recluido en un campo de concentracion, donde se libro de la muerte a cambio de tranquilizar y entretener a miles de prisioneros que eran dirigidos hacia las camaras de gas. Ahora Adan es el cabecilla de un hospital psiquiatrico para supervivientes del Holocausto situado en el desierto del Neguev. El constante desafio de Adan a la autoridad del hospital y sus perturbadoras interpretaciones del pasado sacuden la institucion y la despiertan de su letargo. Mas lucido que los medicos y mas loco que cualquiera de los pacientes, Adan lucha incesantemente por comprender el sentido de un mundo en el que la linea entre cordura y locura se ha borrado irreversiblemente. Esta obra es una de las mas significativas novelas hebreas sobre el Holocausto, y la obra maestra de Yoram Kaniuk, uno de los grandes de las letras hebreas actuales.
