The Island Within

by Ludwig Lewisohn

Book Overview

First published in the late 1920s, The Island Within was Ludwig Lewisohn's first novel to focus on a Jewish theme. Emerging from the experience of World War I and the 1920s, this novel on alienation and mixed marriage (and much more) addresses itself with undiminished power and relevance--and poignancy--to the peculiarities of American Jewish life that continue through to this day.
