Description:
Australia: Brandl & Schlesinger, 2001. Fine as new in illustrated softcover. Robi Singer is a half-orphan -- his father died soon after the war -- who spends his weekdays in a Jewish orphanage in Budapest and his weekends in a small apartment with his grandmother and mother. His mother is agoraphobic and hypochondriac, but his grandmother is a tough old lady who holds down an unskilled job and knows how to work the system; they manage to cling to a middle-class lifestyle, even if they can't afford a proper winter coat for Robi. A teacher at the orphanage inspires him with stories about the heroes of Jewish history, but on Sundays his mother takes him to prayer meetings of Jews for Christ -- and his grandmother is a communist. So when the time comes for Robi's bar mitzvah, it's not clear that his belated circumcision really will be "just a formality"... The tribulations of Robi and his family, and their relationships with others, offer a fascinating view of life in Hungary…
