The Holy City, Jerusalem II is a historical novel written by Selma Lagerlof and published in 1918. The book is a continuation of the author's previous work, Jerusalem, and follows the story of a group of Swedish pilgrims who travel to Jerusalem in the late 19th century. The novel explores the themes of faith, love, and redemption, as the characters struggle to reconcile their personal beliefs with the complex and often violent history of the Holy City. The book is divided into several sections, each focusing on a different character or group of characters, and includes elements of both realism and fantasy.Throughout the novel, Lagerlof weaves together historical events and religious traditions, creating a rich and immersive portrait of Jerusalem and its inhabitants. The book also touches on issues of colonialism and imperialism, as the characters navigate the political and social tensions of the time.Overall, The Holy City, Jerusalem II is a powerful and thought-provoking novel that offers a unique perspective on one of the world's most complex and contested cities.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
