About this product

Product Information

A magnificently ambitious and enthralling novel that confirms Moring's place as one of the most significant European novelists now at work. At the end of the Second World War, Jacob Noah emerges from the hole in the ground where he has been hiding for the past three years, and cycles madly back to his home town to find that his parents and brother have perished at the hands of the Nazis. Setting himself up as a shoemaker in the Dutch town of Assen, Noah patiently expands his business until he has become the most influential entrepreneur in the city. But however wealthy he becomes, nothing can console him for the loss of his family and the tragedy of history. In June 1980, on the eve of Assen's annual TT races, a despairing Noah sets off on a journey into the depths of his soul. Guided by a shabby, supernatural pedlar calling himself the 'Jew of Assen', he descends into the smoky heart of the town, a man-made hell modelled on Dis, the city in Dante's Inferno. In a rich and varied explosion of styles, fantasy and philosophical speculations, Marcel Möring leads us on a voyage through the dark heart of the twentieth century, and through a vivid exploration of loss and guilt.

Reviews
from the reviews of In Babylon: 'It's been a while since a Continental star of fiction shone over here in the Kundera or Eco style. Moring stakes a strong claim to that role with this quite magnificent performance. Rich, Dickensian storytelling, warm and wise humour, a sweeping sense of history a world-class performance from the new Dutch master.' Independent 'Immensely rewarding, instantly readable yet full of imagery, myth and magic.' Good Book Guide 'In Babylon is that rarest of things: a truly intelligent novel with a terrific story at its heart.' Amazon 'A fat, rich novel, stuffed with story, bulging with plot. Read it once then read it again.' The Times

I had heard about this book back in The Eighties. It is well written; but the author is quite naive about Gaddafi’s personal life. I have been an admirer of Gaddafi since the mid Eighties. The book itself is in excellent condition and the seller sent it right out to me. And the seller certainly isn’t responsible for the author’s naïveté; I am glad that I did purchase it.
