The Ghetto: A Drama In Four Acts is a play written by Herman Heijermans Jr. in 1899. The play is set in the Jewish ghetto of Amsterdam in the late 19th century and portrays the struggles of the Jewish community living in poverty and facing discrimination from the wider society. The story follows the life of a poor Jewish family, the Queridos, who are struggling to make ends meet. The family is torn apart by the pressures of their environment, with the father, David, struggling to provide for his family, and his son, Isaac, becoming involved in criminal activities. The play also explores themes of love, betrayal, and the clash of different cultures. The Ghetto is considered a classic of Dutch literature and has been translated into many languages. It is a powerful and moving portrayal of the struggles of a marginalized community and the human cost of prejudice and discrimination.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
