Annotation
Poland, the second half of the 18th century, constant wars, the population on the verge of poverty. In this most difficult time for the country, a young charismatic Jew, Jacob Frank, arrives in Podolia from distant Smyrna. The preaching of the mysterious foreigner divides the Jewish world into two: for one part, he is a dangerous heretic, and for others, a savior, a Messiah, whose number of followers is growing day by day. The strange doctrine of Frankism is born, which soon has a significant impact on the history of Europe. Jakob Frank appears next to weak, dignified people just when they need a transcendental justification of the unbearable existence caused by social injustice and to strengthen the belief that this hard fate is part of the unknown plan of the Creator. That is why they blindly follow Jacob, who is called the Messiah, in a journey full of danger and hope. They believe that this is the only way for the Jewish nation to escape the ordeal and gain personal and political independence. In contemporary Polish author Olga Tokarczuk's historical novel The Books of Jacob (2014), Jacob Frank's biography is richly enriched with artistic invention. The novel consists of seven books with several interesting and completely different narrators. The most outstanding among them is Yenta, Yakobi's great old man who is on the verge of life and death, who, since the day he swallowed the paper agarose hanging on his heart, sees current, future and past events from an unusual perspective. Original sound, deep and multi-layered monumental novel books by Jacob, that is, as the author informs us from the title page: a great journey across seven borders, five languages and three major religions, not counting the minor ones, have been translated into 37 languages. Olga Tokarchuk was awarded the Nobel Prize in 2018. He is also the winner of Booker, Nikkei and a number of prestigious literary prizes and awards.
