One thinks of Wiesel's \u003cem\u003eNight\u003c\/em\u003e or Levi's \u003cem\u003eSurvival in Auschwitz\u003c\/em\u003e. But in 1927, years before these works were written, Joseph Roth (1894-1939) composed \u003cem\u003eThe Wandering Jews\u003c\/em\u003e. In these stunning dispatches written when Roth was a correspondent in Berlin during the whirlwind period of Weimar Germany, he warned of the false comforts of Jewish assimilation, laid bare the schism between Eastern and Western Jews, and at times prophesied the horrors posed by Nazism. \u003cem\u003eThe Wandering Jews\u003c\/em\u003e remains as vital today as when it was first published.
