Wassermann, Jakob, 1873-1934

German-born writer Jakob Wassermann was a popular novelist in the first part of the 20th century. His novels often explored the theme of a nonconformist character encountering an uncaring society, or, more specifically, the issue of retaining Jewish heritage in the face of anti-Semitism and cultural assimilation. Consistently popular in his day, his intense, psychological analysis of modern society and religion sometimes became too abstract for general audiences.
