Herman Broder, a refugee and Holocaust survivor, has three women in
his life: Yadwiga, the loyal Polish peasant who hid him in a
hayloft from the Nazis; Masha, his beautiful and neurotic true
love; and Tamara, his first wife. Unsure of who he really is, what
he wants and whether he can ever find peace, Herman navigates a
crowded, Yiddish New York with a sense of paranoia and impending
doom. Published in 1972, Enemies, A Love Story is an astonishing
novel that blends humour and pathos to create a rich, humane
portrayal of a man who cannot escape his past.
