Description
Focuses on the faith pilgrimage of a holocaust survivor. This work argues that the author's religious faith is the driving force behind his status as a moral authority - that he is essentially a generative religious personality, a poet-prophet - who deepened his own particular Jewish vision to eventually become a 'link' with humanity.
