Attualmente non vi sono conversazioni su questo libro. nice little tale about a philosophy student juggling life, study, and a job as a nanny in an orthodox Jewish household. Written by a Roman Catholic female who thinks she's a Jewess. To each their own, I'd say, but if you do so, why not convert? Kinda odd(the writer), but I enjoyed the book. ( ) Carl Friedman is a Dutch author, actually a woman, who focuses on philosophical issues within the context of a story. Sharon Pomerantz of Haddassah Magazine, quoted inside the front cover, said: ‘A deceptively simple story that captures with astounding clarity a young woman’s search for meaning and humanity in the shadow of her parents Holocaust experience.’ Yes, it is a different view of Holocaust from other books I’ve read and I do recommend this book for a short, serious reading. This very powerful book was originally published in Holland as “Twee Koffers Vol” or Two Loaded Suitcases. A film based on the book titled “Left Luggage” was released in 1998. Cyrille Cobe - October, 2008 Joods Antwerpen. Chaja, die filosofie studeert, is op zoek naar meer houvast dan de boeken haar kunnen bieden. Dagelijks wandelt ze met de kleuter Simcha Kalman, een ontreorend buitenbeetje in een orthodoks joods gezin, naar de vijver in het stadpartk om er zijn geliefde eendjes te voeren. Met een oude vriend van haar vader, meneer Apfelschnit, voert zij geestige gesprekken over de komst van de messias, terwijl haar vader ook op zoek is naar koffers die hij lang geleden heeft begraven. De filosofiestudente Chaja werkt in het Antwerpen van de jaren zeventigals oppas bij het orthodox-joodse gezin Kalman. Ze raakt erg gehechtaan de kleuter Simcha, maar Simcha´s vader is niet erg te spreken overChaja. Zij is echter de enige die tot het zwijgende jongetje weet door tedringen. Ondertussen zoekt Chaja´s vader naar twee koffers die hij in deoorlog heeft begraven. Een aangrijpende roman met een dramatischeafloop, die door Jeroen Krabbé indrukwekkend werd verfilmd als“Left Luggage”. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
