Remembering the age-old tradition of piety and learning, he is deeply saddened by its breakdown in the aftermath of World War I. He learns not to ask about his former friends: they have probably been taken by war, pogrom, or disease. ...The fate of the home town symbolizes the vanishing of the world of traditional values, of trust and faith. The younger generation goes it own way: alienated but alive. The Guest senses a new vitality but he cannot identify with it. There is no bridge from one world to the other." ; 485 pages .
