The Broken Snare is a novel written by Ludwig Lewisohn and published in 1908. The story revolves around the life of a young Jewish man named David Levinsky, who immigrates to America from Eastern Europe in search of a better life. He faces many challenges and struggles in his journey, including poverty, discrimination, and the loss of his faith.David’s journey takes him from the slums of New York City to the heights of success as a wealthy businessman. However, he finds that his success comes at a great cost, as he becomes disconnected from his Jewish heritage and the people who helped him along the way.Throughout the novel, Lewisohn explores themes of identity, assimilation, and the struggle to balance tradition with modernity. The Broken Snare is a powerful and thought-provoking work of fiction that offers a glimpse into the immigrant experience in America at the turn of the 20th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
