THE CHOSEN IN JOHANNESBURG

Author: Chaim Potok Publisher: Penquin () ISBN-10: ISBN-13:   Condition: As New Binding: Softcover Pages: 281 Dimensions: 19.7 x 12.9 x 1.8 cm +++ by Chaim Potok +++ During a baseball game between two rival Jewish schools in New York, two boys become friends. Danny comes from the strict Hasidic sect that keeps him constrained by centuries of orthodoxy. Reuven is brought up by a father who is very aware of the impact of the twentieth century. As six million Jews go to their deaths in Europe and the state of Israel first draws breath, their friendship is battered by conflicting loyalties and beliefs.   A passion for books and a passion for collecting fine editions was the recipe that created the successful group of bookshops in Johannesburg called Bookdealers. The group started thirty years ago with one store in the quirky suburb of Yeoville and has grown through the years to a total of five shops, plus our online sales. Bookdealers is well-known for its collectable and used books. We also have a large variety of remaindered books sourced from around the world.  If you collect from one of our five branches there is no delivery charge. We also offer postal delivery (when available) and courier delivery, subject to a quote.
