Nina Balatka is a novel written by Anthony Trollope, first published in 1867. The story is set in Prague, where Nina Balatka, a young Jewish girl, lives with her father and brother. Nina works in her father's shop and dreams of a better life, but her father is deeply in debt and their family is struggling to make ends meet.Nina falls in love with Anton Trendellsohn, a Christian man, but their relationship is met with opposition from both their families and society. As tensions rise, Nina is forced to make a difficult decision between her love for Anton and her loyalty to her family and religion.The novel explores themes of love, religion, and social class, as well as the challenges faced by Jewish communities in Europe during the mid-19th century. Trollope's writing is known for its realism and attention to detail, and Nina Balatka is no exception, providing a vivid portrayal of life in Prague during this time period.Overall, Nina Balatka is a thought-provoking and engaging novel, offering a glimpse into a world that is both familiar and foreign to modern readers.Then she took herself off, forgetting in her angry spirit the prudential motives which had induced her to begin the conversation with Souchey. But Souchey, though he was going to Madame Zamenoy's house to get his dinner, and was looking forward with much eagerness to the mess of hot cabbage and the cold sausage, had by no means become one of them in the Windberg-gasse. He had had more than one interview of late with Lotta Luxa, and had perceived that something was going on, of which he much desired to be at the bottom.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
