Kaddish for an Unborn Child
The first word of this haunting novel is no. It is how the narrator, a middle-aged Hungarian Jewish writer, answers an acquaintance who asks if he has a child and it is how he answered his, now ex-, wife when she told him she wanted a baby. The loss, longing, and regret that haunt the years between those two nos give rise to one of the most eloquent meditations ever written on the Holocaust. As Kerteszs narrator addresses the child he couldnt bear to bring into the world, he takes readers on a mesmerizing, lyrical journey through his life, from his childhood to Auschwitz to his failed marriage.
