Item Description:

I Accuse!, the novelized retelling of the Dreyfus trial, takes the French government to task for its gross injustice and anti-Semitism. In writing it, journalist Emile Zola put himself at terrible risk, but became celebrated by Jews the world over. Rabbi Wein paints a complete portrait of Zola, describing the ideologies that formed him and the prescience that led him to conclude what no Jew dared to think: that worse tragedies would soon befall them.
