"Jewish Blood" is the most moral book in the best sense of the
word. Through the characters, the reader learns something more how
we gain our life in the willingness to devote it to others; the
reader learns something more about love and hatred, faith and
unbelief, self-confirmation and national pride.
Plunged in danger, intrigue and adventure in the first part of
his life in Germany, the main protagonist, Henry Ginsberg, becomes
a world-recognized Israeli scientist and a Nobel Prize winner in
his later years.
Among the other characters whose fates are entwined with that of
the main protagonist are the following:
-Rachel: a Jewish girl whom Henry saved from the concentration
camp and who became his wife;
-Dr. Otto Dornberger: a talented German scientist, but a
pathological anti-Semite, who influenced Henry's vocation;
-Baruch Silverman: one of the leaders of the World Jewish
Congress, who helped Henry and Rachel to start a new life after the
war;
-Deborah Levine: Silverman's granddaughter whose short life was
a God-given love for Henry;
-Rabbi Boxter: Henry's spiritual mentor, who believes that
American Jews have failed to assume their full responsibility to
the Jewish people as a whole.
These persons and many others create a unique pattern of human
relations in the modern world. The mystical power of the memory of
the past blends with tensions of today's Israel until the past and
the present explode together in a tremendous finale.
