"Ilana Davita Dinn is the listener to whom three men relate their lives." "As a young girl, she offers English lessons to a teenage survivor of the camps. In "The Ark Builder," he shares with her the story of his friendship with a proud old builder of synagogue arks, and what happened when the German army invaded their Polish town." "As a graduate student, she finds herself escorting a guest lecturer from the Soviet Union, and in "The War Doctor," her sympathy moves him to put his painful past to paper recounting his experiences as a Soviet NKVD agent who was saved by an idealistic doctor during the Russian civil war, only to encounter him again during the terrifying period of the Kremlin doctors' plot." "And, finally, we meet her in "The Trope Teacher," in which a distinguished professor of military history, trying to write his memoirs, is distracted by his wife's illness and by the arrival next door of a new neighbor, the famous writer I.D. (Ilana Davita) Chandal."--Jacket. 591 Record updated by Marcive processing 21 June 2024 650 0 Storytelling |vFiction. 650 0 Older men |vFiction. 650 0 Jews |vFiction. 650 0 Jews |vJuvenile fiction. 650 7 Jews. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00983135 650 7 Older men. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01199154 650 7 Storytelling. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01134169 655 7 Novellas. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01921741 655 7 Fiction. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01423787 655 7 Novellas. |2lcgft 655 7 Fiction. |2lcgft 776 08 |iOnline version:Potok, Chaim. |tOld men at midnight. |b1st ed. |dNew York : Knopf, 2001 |w(OCoLC)606596197 856 42 |3Sample text |uhttp://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/samples/random042/2001033861.html 856 42 |3Table of contents |uhttp://bvbr.bib-bvb.de:8991/F?func=service&doc_library=BVB01&doc_number=009874781&line_number=0001&func_code=DB_RECORDS&service_type=MEDIA 856 42 |3Contributor biographical information |uhttp://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/bios/random053/2001033861.html 856 42 |3Publisher description |uhttp://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/description/random044/2001033861.html 852 0 |bstacks |hPS3566.O69 |iO44 2001
