What could bring people to form a mob and attack others? What circumstances could provoke a thirst for blood at the market square? Who will gang up to batter their neighbor improbably returned from deportation? How can a person be swept up among lynchers? P l Z vada's novel examines and analyses the anti - Semitic mass hysteria and political opportunism surrounding the pogroms in Hungary that followed World War II and the Holocaust. In May 1946, at the village market M ria Cs ka witnessed a group of women set upon and beat to death a Jewish egg seller. The wife of a schoolteacher accused of anti - Semitic incitement and daughter of a respected shopkeeper M ria fears for her husband's life yet cannot ignore the victims. The murderous fury spreads through the neighborhood like wildfire dragging out women children and the elderly alike. M ria's notes from the bloody day at the village market and from the subsequent trial in Budapest testify to a state of human relations that is intimately complex and irreparably scarred.\u003cbr\u003e\nTitle: Market Day\u003cbr\u003e\nAuthor(s): Good Owen\u003cbr\u003e\nPublisher: Seagull Books London Ltd\u003cbr\u003e\nBarcode: 9781803091600\u003cbr\u003e\nPages: 208 Pages\u003cbr\u003e\nPublication Date: 1\/25\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\nCategory: Religious \u0026amp; Spiritual Fiction","brand":"Good Owen","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49624373428529,"sku":"IN-G-9781803091600","price":19.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0644\/6759\/9594\/files\/9781803091600.jpg?v=1724944194","url":"https:\/\/bookdelivered.com\/products\/9781803091600-market-day","provider":"Book Delivered","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
