The Book of Questions, of which volumes IV, V, VI are together
published here, is a meditative narrative of Jewish Experience,
and, more generally, man's relation to the world. In these volumes
the word is personified in the woman Yael, silence in her
still-born child Elya. Even though words imply ambiguity and lies,
they are the home of the exile. A book becomes the Book, fragments
of the law that are in some way unified, where past and present,
the visionary, and the common place, encounter each other. For
Jabes every word is a question in the book of being. Man defines
himself in the world against all that threatens his existence-
death, the infinite, silence, that is, God, his primal opponent.
