Other protagonists are not so innocent. Hodel, of \"The Gentleman from Cracow, \" is wed to Ketev Mriri, Chief of the Devils, and Nathan, of \"The Unseen,\" leaves his wife for a demon in the form of a young woman. Enlightened or condemned, all characters inhabit the pre-World War II ghettos of Poland, and take shape in Singer's distinctive prose.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0374500525\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.0374500525.A\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Acceptable\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Singer, Isaac Bashevis\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: The item is very worn but is perfectly usable.
